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

    CkHttp http;

    //  Setting the AuthToken property causes the "Authorization: Bearer <token>" header to be added to each request.
    //  This applies to any of the Chilkat method calls that send a GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, or anything else..
    http.put_AuthToken("ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017");

    //  For example:
    const char *responseStr = http.quickGetStr("https://www.chilkatsoft.com/helloWorld.xml");
    std::cout << responseStr << "\r\n";

    //  The following HTTP request is sent in the above call.

    //  GET /helloWorld.xml HTTP/1.1
    //  Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
    //  Accept: */*
    //  Accept-Encoding: gzip
    //  Authorization: Bearer ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017
