(VB.NET) Get RSA Private Key in JWK Format (JSON Web Key)

Demonstrates how to get an RSA private key in JWK (JSON Web Key) format.

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

' Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or later.

' Load a PEM file into memory.
Dim sbPem As New Chilkat.StringBuilder
Dim success As Boolean = sbPem.LoadFile("qa_data/pem/rsa_passwd.pem","utf-8")
If (success <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine("Failed to load PEM file.")
    Exit Sub
End If


' Load the PEM into a private key object.
Dim privKey As New Chilkat.PrivateKey
success = privKey.LoadEncryptedPem(sbPem.GetAsString(),"passwd")
If (success <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(privKey.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' Get the private key in JWK format:
Dim jwk As String = privKey.GetJwk()

' The GetJwk method will return the JWK in the most compact JSON format possible,
' as a single line with no extra whitespace.  To get a more human-readable JWK (for this example),
' load into a Chilkat JSON object and emit non-compact:

Dim json As New Chilkat.JsonObject
json.Load(jwk)
json.EmitCompact = False
Debug.WriteLine("RSA Private Key in JWK format:")
Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit())

' Sample output:
