(VB.NET UWP/WinRT) JWS Using HMAC SHA-256

Creates a JSON Web Signatures (JWS) using HMAC SHA-256.

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.
