(Swift 2) 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:

    //       "crv":"P-521",
