(PHP Extension) Validate JWS Using HMAC SHA-256

Validates a JSON Web Signature (JWS) using HMAC SHA-256.

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

// The version number (9_5_0) should match version of the Chilkat extension used, omitting the micro-version number.
// For example, if using Chilkat v9.5.0.48, then include as shown here:
include("chilkat_9_5_0.php");

// 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 a MAC key to validate and recover the protected header and payload.

$jws = new CkJws();

// Set the HMAC key:

    print 'Invalid signature.  The MAC key was incorrect, the JWS was invalid, or both.' . "\n";
    exit;
}

// If we get here, the signature was validated..
print 'Signature validated.' . "\n";

// Recover the original content:

// Examine the protected header:
// joseHeader is a CkJsonObject

print $joseHeader->emit() . "\n";

// Output:

// 	Signature validated.
// 	Recovered content:
// 	{"iss":"joe",
// 	 "exp":1300819380,
// 	 "http://example.com/is_root":true}
// 	Protected (JOSE) header:
