Ed25519ph Sign and Verify

See more Ed25519 Examples

Demonstrates how to create an Ed25519ph signature, and then to verify it.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.91 or greater.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // Use the following test vector from https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8032#page-30

    //    -----TEST abc
