React Native Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Validate JWS Using RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 SHA-256

See more JSON Web Signatures (JWS) Examples

Validates a JSON Web Signature (JWS) that uses RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 SHA-256. React Native

  // 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 RSA public key to validate and recover the protected header and payload.

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

  //      {"kty":"RSA", 
  //       "n":"ofgWCuLjybRlzo0tZWJjNiuSfb4p4fAkd_wWJcyQoTbji9k0l8W26mPddx
