Demonstrates how to lookup Geolocation data for an IPv4 address using the ipinfo.io API. C++

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

    http.put_Accept("application/json");

    // Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
