fun PublicKey.verify(content: ByteArray, signature: DigitalSignature): Boolean
Utility to simplify the act of verifying a signature.
InvalidKeyException - if the key to verify the signature with is not valid (i.e. wrong key type for the
signature).
SignatureException - if the signature is invalid (i.e. damaged), or does not match the key (incorrect).
IllegalArgumentException - if the signature scheme is not supported or if any of the clear or signature data is empty.
fun PublicKey.verify(signatureData: ByteArray, clearData: ByteArray): Boolean
Helper function to verify a signature.
signatureData - the signature on a message.
clearData - the clear data/message that was signed (usually the Merkle root).
InvalidKeyException - if the key is invalid.
SignatureException - if this signatureData object is not initialized properly,
the passed-in signatureData is improperly encoded or of the wrong type,
if this signatureData algorithm is unable to process the input data provided, etc.
IllegalArgumentException - if the signature scheme is not supported for this private key or if any of the clear or signature data is empty.
