(DataFlex) Verify XML Digital Signature having KeyName

Demonstrates how to verify an XML digital signature where the KeyInfo part contains the KeyName element.
In this case, the public key is not specifically stored in the signed XML.
Rather, application specific information about the key is stored in the KeyName element.
This example uses the KeyName to find and matching public key.

This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.69 or greater.
