(Chilkat2-Python) Validate a JWS Using ECDSA P-521 SHA-512

Validates a JSON Web Signature (JWS) that uses ECDSA P-521 SHA-512

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

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

# Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or greater.

# 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-521", 
#       "x":"AekpBQ8ST8a8VcfVOTNl353vSrDCLLJXmPk06wTjxrrjcBpXp5EOnYG_NjFZ6OvLFV1jSfS9tsz4qUxcWceqwQGk", 
#       "y":"ADSmRA43Z1DSNx_RvcLI87cdL07l6jQyyBXMoxVg_l2Th-x3S1WDhjDly79ajL4Kkd0AZMaZmh9ubmf63e3kyMj2" 
#      }
