func chilkatTest() {

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

    // This example takes a JSON signature in compact serialization format,
    // and uses an RSA public key to validate and recover the protected header and payload.

    // We only need a public key for signature validation.  This is the RSA public key
    // that is used:

    //      {"kty":"RSA", 
    //       "n":"ofgWCuLjybRlzo0tZWJjNiuSfb4p4fAkd_wWJcyQoTbji9k0l8W26mPddx
