Demonstrates how to load an ECC public key from JWK (JSON Web Key) format.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or later.

    var success bool

    // First build a JWK sample to load..

    json.UpdateString("y","vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU")

    // The JSON contains the following:
    // { 
    //   "kty": "EC",
    //   "crv": "P-256",
    //   "x": "oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE",
    //   "y": "vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU",
    // }

    // Note: The JSON can contain other members, such as "use", "kid", or anything else.  These will be ignored.
    json.SetEmitCompact(false)

    // Show the JWK string to be loaded:
    jwkStr := json.Emit()

    pubKey := chilkat.NewPublicKey()
    // The LoadFromString method will automatically detect the format.
    success = pubKey.LoadFromString(*jwkStr)

    // OK.. the JWK is loaded.  It can be used in whatever way desired...

    // The key can be retrieved in any other format, such as XML or PEM..
    fmt.Println(*pubKey.GetXml())

    // XML output:
