(VB.NET UWP/WinRT) JWE Using General JWE JSON Serialization

This example duplicates the example A.4 in RFC 7516 for JSON Web Encryption (JWE).

This example demonstrates the capability for encrypting the same plaintext to multiple recipients. Two recipients are present in this example.

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.

Dim success As Boolean
Dim plaintext As String = "Live long and prosper."

Dim jwe As New Chilkat.Jwe

' First build the JWE Protected Header: {"enc":"A128CBC-HS256"}
Dim jweProtHdr As New Chilkat.JsonObject
jweProtHdr.AppendString("enc","A128CBC-HS256")
jwe.SetProtectedHeader(jweProtHdr)

' The first recipient uses the RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5 algorithm to encrypt
' the CEK.  The second uses AES Key Wrap to encrypt the CEK.  Key ID
' values are supplied for both keys.  The two JWE Per-Recipient
' Unprotected Header values used to represent these algorithms and key
' IDs are:
' 
'      {"alg":"RSA1_5","kid":"2011-04-29"}
' 
' and
' 
'      {"alg":"A128KW","kid":"7"}


Dim jweRecipientHdr1 As New Chilkat.JsonObject
jweRecipientHdr1.AppendString("alg","RSA1_5")
jweRecipientHdr1.AppendString("kid","2011-04-29")
Dim recipientIndex As Integer = 0
jwe.SetRecipientHeader(recipientIndex,jweRecipientHdr1)

Dim jweRecipientHdr2 As New Chilkat.JsonObject
jweRecipientHdr2.AppendString("alg","A128KW")
jweRecipientHdr2.AppendString("kid","7")
recipientIndex = 1
jwe.SetRecipientHeader(recipientIndex,jweRecipientHdr2)

' Set the Shared Unprotected Header:  {"jku":"https://server.example.com/keys.jwks"}
Dim jweUnprotHdr As New Chilkat.JsonObject
jweUnprotHdr.AppendString("jku","https://server.example.com/keys.jwks")
jwe.SetUnprotectedHeader(jweUnprotHdr)

' Note: The intent of specifying a "kid" (an acronym for "Key ID") is that
' the software would somehow download the keys.jwks from https://server.example.com/keys.jwks,
' and would select the key (whatever format it may be, such as RSA, or an AES key wrap key, etc.),
' and then automatically use it. 

' This example keeps the "kid" and "jku" in their respective headers, but does not actually fetch
' the keys from some URL.  We'll just provide the keys directly..

' Recipient 0 uses this RSA key:
