If I write a method using dotnet's cryptography libraries and use it
for encryption in my application. How can other applications decrypt
these messages. The other applications will be developed in some othe
languages also.

Thanks in advance for the help

In order to decrypt the message other application has to known with what algorithm the message was encrypted,
is there public key, private key?

Nerd,

I live in the Rijnvalley, therefore I remember me always this "Rijndael"
keyword to come on almost every encryption page on MSDN.

If I use SymmetricalAlgorithm RijndaelManaged as the algorithm and if I
share the Key that I use with other applications that wants to decrypt
this. will they be able to decrypt the message?

I mean is the algorithm RijndaelManaged a universal algorithm?
Just by knowing the key used for encryption will I be able to decrypt
the message?
