    //  The PROPFIND request to be sent will look similar to this:
    //  This is from RFC 4918 at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918#section-9.1.3

    //       PROPFIND /file HTTP/1.1
    //       Host: www.example.com
    //       Content-type: application/xml; charset="utf-8";
    //       Content-Length: xxxx
    //  
    //       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    //       <D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:">
    //         <D:prop xmlns:R="http://ns.example.com/boxschema/">

    //  Build the HTTP request object. 

    //  The HTTP verb should be "PROPFIND";
    CkHttpRequest_putHttpVerb(req,"PROPFIND");

    //  The Content-Type should be "application/xml", and
    //  the charset attribute in the Content-Type header should
    //  be utf-8:
    CkHttpRequest_putContentType(req,"application/xml");
    CkHttpRequest_putCharset(req,"utf-8");
    CkHttpRequest_putSendCharset(req,TRUE);

    //  Load the request body with the XML.  Your application 
    //  is free to construct the XML using any means desired.
    //  Once the XML is prepared, load it into the request body
    //  like this:
    xmlBody = "This is the string that should contain the XML body...";
    success = CkHttpRequest_LoadBodyFromString(req,xmlBody,"utf-8");
    if (success == FALSE) {
        printf("%s\n",CkHttpRequest_lastErrorText(req));
        CkHttpRequest_Dispose(req);

        return;

    //  For this example, pretend the WEBDAV endpoint is:
    //  https://webdav.chilkatstorage.com/

    //  Note: There is no actual "chilkatstorage.com" site.  
    //  This is only an example...

    //  The "path" part of this endpoint URL is simply "/".

    //  Send the request to the WebDAV endpoint using 
    //  the HttpSReq method:

        return;
    }

    //  Get the XML response:

    responseXml = CkHttpResponse_bodyStr(resp);
    printf("XML Response: %s\n",responseXml);
