' First build a JWK sample to load..

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

' 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.PublicKey")

' The LoadFromString method will automatically detect the format.

If (success <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( pubKey.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"

' 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..
