;  This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
;  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

;  This example takes a JSON signature in compact serialization format,
;  and uses an ECDSA public key to validate and recover the protected header and payload.

;  We only need a public key for signature validation.  This is the ECDSA public key
;  that is used:

;       {"kty":"EC", 
;        "crv":"P-256", 
;        "x":"f83OJ3D2xF1Bg8vub9tLe1gHMzV76e8Tus9uPHvRVEU",
