    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.

    // This example uses a Google access_token + id_token that looks like this:

    //  {
    //   "access_token": "ya29.a0...0f",
    //   "expires_in": 3599,
    //   "scope": "openid https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email",
    //   "token_type": "Bearer",
    //   "id_token": "eyJhb...o5nQ"
    // }

    // Use Chilkat's JWT API to examine the id_token..

    var idToken: String? = jsonToken.StringOf("id_token")

    // Extract the JOSE header..

    let jsonHeader = CkoJsonObject()
    jsonHeader.Load(jose)
    jsonHeader.EmitCompact = false
    print("\(jsonHeader.Emit())")

    // The JOSE header looks like this:

    // {
    //   "alg": "RS256",
    //   "kid": "e8799db06287515556213c80acbcfd022fb302a9",
    //   "typ": "JWT"
    // }

    var claims: String? = jwt.GetPayload(idToken)

    let jsonClaims = CkoJsonObject()
    jsonClaims.Load(claims)
    jsonClaims.EmitCompact = false
    print("\(jsonClaims.Emit())")

    // The claims look like this:

    // {
    //   "iss": "https://accounts.google.com",
    //   "azp": "258999997753-5ni8lu5f15r7mno97d82f5lir9i9f6i1.apps.googleusercontent.com",
    //   "aud": "258999997753-5ni8lu5f15r7mno97d82f5lir9i9f6i1.apps.googleusercontent.com",

    // }

    // The at_hash is the Access Token hash value. Its value is the base64url encoding of the
    // left-most half of the hash of the octets of the ASCII representation of the access_token value,
    // where the hash algorithm used is the hash algorithm used in the alg Header Parameter of the
    // ID Token's JOSE Header. For instance, if the alg is RS256, hash the access_token value with SHA-256,
    // then take the left-most 128 bits and base64url encode them. The at_hash value is a case sensitive string.

    var token_to_hash: String? = jsonToken.StringOf("access_token")
    var token_hash_expected: String? = jsonClaims.StringOf("at_hash")

    // Step 1. hashes the access token using SHA-256 (Google uses `RS256` as the ID Token `alg`).
    let crypt = CkoCrypt2()
    let bdHash = CkoBinData()

    crypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha256"
    // This encoding mode must match the encoding mode passed in the 2nd arg to AppendEncoded.
    // The encoding mode can be anything, as long as they are the same in both places.
    crypt.EncodingMode = "hex"

    success = bdHash.AppendEncoded(crypt.HashStringENC(token_to_hash), encoding: "hex")
    var sz: Int = bdHash.NumBytes.intValue

    var token_hash_computed: String? = bdHash.GetEncodedChunk(0, numBytes: sz / 2, encoding: "base64url")

    // If the hashes are identical, then the access_token as issued for the given id_token.
    print("token_hash_expected: \(token_hash_expected!)")
