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

; This example duplicates the following CURL statement provided in the hotelbeds.com "Getting Started"
; developer documentation:

; #!/bin/bash 
; apiKey="yourApiKey"
; secret="yourSecret"
; curl -i \
;   -X GET \
;   -H 'Accept:application/json' \
;   -H 'Api-key:'$apiKey'' \
;   -H 'X-Signature:'$(echo -n ${apiKey}${secret}$(date +%s)|sha256sum|awk '{ print $1}')'' \
;   https://api.test.hotelbeds.com/hotel-api/1.0/status

; The "date + %s" command emits a UNIX date/time number such as 1605548842
; We need to concatenate the apiKey, secret, and current date/time in UNIX (numeric) time format.
$oDt = ObjCreate("Chilkat.CkDateTime")
$oDt.SetFromCurrentSystemTime()
; Get the UNIX time string in the GMT timezone.
Local $bLocalTime = False

; Use your own API key and secret.  (These are not valid values)

$oCrypt.HashAlgorithm = "sha256"

Local $signature = $oCrypt.HashStringENC($oSb.GetAsString())
