I am attempting to verify a digital signature using C# and
the .NET Framework on a digital signature created in Java.
I am having a problem loading the public key into the DSA
security provider.

If I read the key as a stream of bytes and set the Y
parameter of the DSAParameters object, then import the
DSAParameters object, I am told that some fields are
missing.

I have accessed the P, Q and G values in Java, converted
them to bytes and set the appropriate parameters of the
DSAParameters object. I then receive a message
indicating "bad data".

Is it possible to load in the public key in this way? All
the samples seem to use FromXMLString and ToXMLString.
