Procedure Test
    Handle hoHttp
    String sHtml
    String sTemp1
    Boolean bTemp1

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

    Get Create (RefClass(cComChilkatHttp)) To hoHttp
    If (Not(IsComObjectCreated(hoHttp))) Begin
        Send CreateComObject of hoHttp
    End

    // Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
    // logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a file.

    // The SessionLogFilename may be used with any of the HTTP
    // methods for sending GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc.
    Set ComSessionLogFilename Of hoHttp To "c:/temp/httpSessionLog.txt"

    // Try a simple HTTP GET and then examine the session log:
    Get ComQuickGetStr Of hoHttp "http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html" To sHtml
    Get ComLastMethodSuccess Of hoHttp To bTemp1
    If (bTemp1 <> True) Begin
        Get ComLastErrorText Of hoHttp To sTemp1
        Showln sTemp1
        Procedure_Return
    End

    // The contents of the session log file after doing 
    // the GET request:

    // 	---- Sending ----
