UnsupportedCrypto class

The UnsupportedCrypto exception class describes an exception associated with finding a request for a cipher that is not supported by the hardware. This is purely a machine configuration issue: if the machine involved is configured to support the cipher required by the method, no exception is thrown.

To produce an UnsupportedCrypto exception yourself, you typically use a SOUL Throw statement with an UnsupportedCrypto New constructor. This statement must be issued from within a method, and it can only be caught by the code that calls the method. For example, the following statement throws an UnsupportedCrypto exception:

throw %(UnsupportedCrypto):new
