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

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

// Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
string jsonStr = http.QuickGetStr("http://api.ipstack.com/149.250.207.170?access_key=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY");
if (http.LastMethodSuccess == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.JsonObject json = new Chilkat.JsonObject();
json.EmitCompact = false;
bool success = json.Load(jsonStr);

Debug.WriteLine(json.Emit());
