PHP Class Emarref\Jwt\HeaderParameter\Type
The "typ" (type) Header Parameter is used by JWS applications to declare the MIME Media Type [IANA.MediaTypes] of
this complete JWS object. This is intended for use by the application when more than one kind of object could be
present in an application data structure that can contain a JWS object; the application can use this value to
disambiguate among the different kinds of objects that might be present. It will typically not be used by
applications when the kind of object is already known. This parameter is ignored by JWS implementations; any
processing of this parameter is performed by the JWS application. Use of this Header Parameter is OPTIONAL.
Per RFC 2045 [RFC2045], all media type values, subtype values, and parameter names are case-insensitive. However,
parameter values are case-sensitive unless otherwise specified for the specific parameter.
To keep messages compact in common situations, it is RECOMMENDED that producers omit an "application/" prefix of a
media type value in a "typ" Header Parameter when no other '/' appears in the media type value. A recipient using
the media type value MUST treat it as if "application/" were prepended to any "typ" value not containing a '/'. For
instance, a "typ" value of "example" SHOULD be used to represent the "application/example" media type; whereas, the
media type "application/example;part="1/2"" cannot be shortened to "example;part="1/2"".
The "typ" value "JOSE" can be used by applications to indicate that this object is a JWS or JWE using the JWS Compact
Serialization or the JWE Compact Serialization. The "typ" value "JOSE+JSON" can be used by applications to indicate
that this object is a JWS or JWE using the JWS JSON Serialization or the JWE JSON Serialization. Other type values
can also be used by applications.
