Remarks

This class implements the RFC2898 standard for generating keys from string or byte array passwords utilizing the SHA-1 hash algorithm.

With this class, a key of any length can be generated from a string or byte array password.

Properties:

Name	Description
IterationCount (get)	Returns the number of iterations used when computing the next set of bytes.
IterationCount (let)	Sets the number of iterations to be used when computing the next set of bytes.
Salt (get)	Returns any Salt being used during key generation.
Salt (let)	Sets the Salt to be used during key generation.

Methods:

Name	Description
Equals	This function determines if the value passed in is the same as the current object instance. Meaning, are the Value and this object the same object in memory.
GetBytes	Returns the next set of bytes to be generated for a specific string password.
GetHashCode	Returns a psuedo-unique number used to help identify this object in memory. The current method is to return the value obtained from ObjPtr. If a different method needs to be impelmented then change the method here in this function. An override might be necessary if the hashcode should be derived from a value contained within the class.
Reset	Resets the key generator.
ToString	Returns a string representation of this object instance. The default method simply returns the application name and class name in which this class resides. A Person class may return the persons name instead.
