public static void FlushCache(
	int millisecondsTimeout = -1
)

Public Shared Sub FlushCache ( 
	Optional millisecondsTimeout As Integer = -1
)

public:
static void FlushCache(
	int millisecondsTimeout = -1
)

static member FlushCache : 
        ?millisecondsTimeout : int 
(* Defaults:
        let _millisecondsTimeout = defaultArg millisecondsTimeout -1
*)
-> unit 

GSF.Security.Cryptography.Cipher.FlushCache = function(millisecondsTimeout);

Parameters

millisecondsTimeout  Int32  (Optional)

The number of milliseconds to wait, or Infinite(-1) to wait indefinitely.

This method only needs to be used if crypto cache changes could be pending during application shutdown (i.e., executing ciphers with new keys that have not been saved, using existing keys does not queue crypto cache updates) to ensure keys are flushed before exit.

For most applications it is expected that this method would be rarely needed. However, possible usage scenarios would include:

• Writing an application that establishes crypto keys where application lifetime would be very short (i.e., run, create keys, exit).
• Creating new crypto keys during application shutdown (i.e., performing ciphers with non-existing keys at shutdown).
