    //  --------------------------------------------------
    //  This example borrows the code from the REST using SOCKS Proxy example.
    //  We first use the Chilkat Socket object to establish a connection to the WebSocket server through a SOCKS proxy.
    //  Next, the Rest object uses the Socket object for its connection.
    //  Finally, the WebSocket object uses the Rest object for its connection.
    // 

    CkRest rest = new CkRest();
    CkSocket socket = new CkSocket();

    //  Set the SOCKS proxy domain or IP address, port, and SOCKS version number (4 or 5)
    socket.put_SocksHostname("192.168.1.79");
    socket.put_HttpProxyPort(1080);
    socket.put_SocksVersion(5);

    //  Provide authentication to the SOCKS proxy, if needed.
    socket.put_SocksUsername("SOCKS_PROXY_LOGIN");
    socket.put_SocksPassword("SOCKS_PROXY_PASSWORD");

    //  Connect to the websocket server through the HTTP proxy.
    boolean bTls = false;
    int port = 80;
    int maxWaitMs = 5000;
    boolean success = socket.Connect("some-websocket-server.com",port,bTls,maxWaitMs);
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println("Connect Failure Error Code: " + socket.get_ConnectFailReason());
        System.out.println(socket.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    //  Tell the Rest object to use the connected socket.
    success = rest.UseConnection(socket,true);
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println(rest.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    CkWebSocket ws = new CkWebSocket();

    //  Tell the WebSocket to use this connection.
    success = ws.UseConnection(rest);
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println(ws.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    //  Add the standard WebSocket open handshake headers that will be needed.
    //  (This adds the required HTTP request headers to the rest object.)
    ws.AddClientHeaders();

    //  Add any additional headers that might be desired.
    //  Two common WebSocketSpecific headers are "Sec-WebSocket-Protocol" and "Origin".
    rest.AddHeader("Sec-WebSocket-Protocol","x-some-websocket-subprotocol");
    rest.AddHeader("Origin","http://some-websocket-server.com");

    //  Do the open handshake.
    String responseBody = rest.fullRequestNoBody("GET","/something");
    if (rest.get_LastMethodSuccess() != true) {
        System.out.println(rest.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    //  If successful, the HTTP response status code should be 101,
    //  and the response body will be empty. (If it failed, we'll have a look
    //  at the response body..)
    int statusCode = rest.get_ResponseStatusCode();
    System.out.println("Response status code: " + statusCode);

    if (statusCode != 101) {
        System.out.println(responseBody);
        System.out.println("-- Failed because of unexpected response status code.");
        return;
        }

    //  We have the expected 101 response, so let's now validate the
    //  contents of the response, such as the value sent by the server in the
    //  Sec-WebSocket-Accept header.
    success = ws.ValidateServerHandshake();
    if (success != true) {
        System.out.println(ws.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    System.out.println("WebSocket connection successful.");

    //  The application may now begin sending and receiving frames on the WebSocket connection.
    //  (At this point, we're done with the rest and socket objects...)

    System.out.println("Success.");
