    bool success = false;

    // The Chilkat API can be unlocked for a fully-functional 30-day trial by passing any
    // string to the UnlockBundle method.  A program can unlock once at the start. Once unlocked,
    // all subsequently instantiated objects are created in the unlocked state. 
    // 
    // <b>After licensing Chilkat, replace the "Anything for 30-day trial" with the purchased unlock code.</b>
    // To verify the purchased unlock code was recognized, examine the contents of the LastErrorText
    // property after unlocking.  For example:
    CkGlobal glob;
    success = glob.UnlockBundle("Anything for 30-day trial");
    if (success != true) {
        std::cout << glob.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    int status = glob.get_UnlockStatus();
    if (status == 2) {
        std::cout << "Unlocked using purchased unlock code." << "\r\n";
    }
    else {
        std::cout << "Unlocked in trial mode." << "\r\n";
    }

    // --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // Important: In most cases, you'll want to use Chilkat in full utf-8 mode.
    // In a future major version release, the DefaultUtf8 property's default will change to true.
    // --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    glob.put_DefaultUtf8(true);

    // The LastErrorText can be examined in the success case to see if it was unlocked in
    // trial more, or with a purchased unlock code.
    std::cout << glob.lastErrorText() << "\r\n";
