bool success = false;

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

    // 0 = success

    // Normal (non-TLS) sockets:
    // 1 = empty hostname
    // 2 = DNS lookup failed
    // 3 = DNS timeout
    // 4 = Aborted by application.
    // 5 = Internal failure.
    // 6 = Connect Timed Out
    // 7 = Connect Rejected (or failed for some other reason)

    // SSL/TLS:
    // 100 = TLS internal error.

    // 106 = Server certificate verify failed (the server certificate is expired or the cert's signature verification failed).
    // 107 = Unacceptable TLS protocol version.
    // 109 = Failed to read handshake messages.
