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

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();
bool success;

// Implements the following CURL command:

// curl -H "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" \
// "https://api.smsapi.com/sms.do?from=sender_name&to=44123456789&message=message_content&format=json"

// Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
// Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

// Adds the "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" header.
http.AuthToken = "token_api_oauth";

string messageContent = "Hello\r\nThis is a test\r\nwith multiple lines of text.";

// Given that our message contentn has newlines, we obviously cannot put newlines in a URL without them being URL encoded..
// Therefore.. URL encode..
Chilkat.StringBuilder sbMessage = new Chilkat.StringBuilder();
sbMessage.Append(messageContent);
sbMessage.Encode("url","utf-8");

http.SetUrlVar("msgContent",sbMessage.GetAsString());
