// 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",
