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

' First build a JWK sample to load..
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject")
set json = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.JsonObject")
success = json.UpdateString("kty","EC")
success = json.UpdateString("crv","P-256")
success = json.UpdateString("x","oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE")
success = json.UpdateString("y","vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU")
success = json.UpdateString("d","EbVzfPnZPxfAyxqEZV05laAoJAl-_6Xt2O4mOB611sM")

' The JSON contains the following:
' { 
'   "kty": "EC",
'   "crv": "P-256",
'   "x": "oBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxE",
'   "y": "vvQyxZkUjJQUPU_0bCy3Pj5qQdfu8jwEfqEeYGZ95CU",
'   "d": "EbVzfPnZPxfAyxqEZV05laAoJAl-_6Xt2O4mOB611sM"
' }

' Note: The JSON can contain other members, such as "use", "kid", or anything else.  These will be ignored.
json.EmitCompact = 0

' Show the JWK string to be loaded:
jwkStr = json.Emit()

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.PrivateKey")
set privKey = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.PrivateKey")
success = privKey.LoadJwk(jwkStr)
If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( privKey.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
    Response.End
End If

' OK.. the JWK is loaded.  It can be used in whatever way desired...

' The key can be retrieved in any other format, such as XML or PEM..
Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( privKey.GetXml()) & "</pre>"

' XML output:
' <ECCKeyValue curve="secp256r1">MHcCAQEEIBG1c3z52T8XwMsahGVdOZWgKCQJfv+l7djuJjgetdbDoAoGCCqGSM49AwEHoEQDQgAEoBUyo8CQAFPeYPvv78ylh5MwFZjTCLQeb042TjiMJxG+9DLFmRSMlBQ9T/RsLLc+PmpB1+7yPAR+oR5gZn3kJQ==</ECCKeyValue>
