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

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.HttpRequest")
set req = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.HttpRequest")
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http")
set http = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Http")

' If any custom headers need to be included with the POST, add them
' by calling SetRequestHeader

' Note: An application should never explicitly set the Content-Length header.
' The Content-Length is automatically computed and added by Chilkat.

' Here are some examples of custom headers.  

' Perhaps your particular app needs some sort of custom-computed Authorization header...
http.SetRequestHeader "Authorization","my-custom-computed-auth-value"

' Another custom header for some hypothetical app:
http.SetRequestHeader "X-Pass-Timestamp","my-custom-computed-timestamp-value"

' We don't need to set the Content-Type header, becaue it is automatically set by Chilkat
' in the PostJson2 call below.

' The following "Accept" header may be set, but it really isn't necessary:
http.SetRequestHeader "Accept","application/json"

jsonText = "{ some JSON text ... }"

' To use SSL/TLS, simply use "https://" in the URL.

' resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
Set resp = http.PostJson2("http://www.someserver.com/someJsonEndpoint","application/json",jsonText)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) Then
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( http.LastErrorText) & "</pre>"
Else
    ' Display the JSON response.
    Response.Write "<pre>" & Server.HTMLEncode( resp.BodyStr) & "</pre>"

End If
