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

$oReq = ObjCreate("Chilkat.HttpRequest")
$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")

;  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/">
;           <R:bigbox/>
;           <R:author/>
;           <R:DingALing/>
;           <R:Random/>
;         </D:prop>
;       </D:propfind>

;  Build the HTTP request object. 

;  The HTTP verb should be "PROPFIND";
$oReq.HttpVerb = "PROPFIND"

;  The Content-Type should be "application/xml", and
;  the charset attribute in the Content-Type header should
;  be utf-8:
$oReq.ContentType = "application/xml"
$oReq.Charset = "utf-8"
$oReq.SendCharset = 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:
Local $sXmlBody = "This is the string that should contain the XML body..."
$bSuccess = $oReq.LoadBodyFromString($sXmlBody,"utf-8")
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oReq.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  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:

$oResp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.HttpResponse")
$bSuccess = $oHttp.HttpSReq("webdav.chilkatstorage.com",443,True,$oReq,$oResp)
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oHttp.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf

;  Get the XML response:
Local $sResponseXml
$sResponseXml = $oResp.BodyStr
ConsoleWrite("XML Response: " & $sResponseXml & @CRLF)

;  Get the response status code, such as 207
Local $iStatusCode
$iStatusCode = $oResp.StatusCode
ConsoleWrite("StatusCode = " & $iStatusCode & @CRLF)
