bool success = false;

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

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

http.OAuth1 = true;
http.OAuthVerifier = "";
http.OAuthConsumerKey = "my-consumer-key";
http.OAuthConsumerSecret = "my-consumer-secret";
http.OAuthToken = "my-access-token";
http.OAuthTokenSecret = "my-token-secret";

// Send the same status update as shown in this example:
// https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/post/statuses/update

// IMPORTANT: Make sure this app has read/write access.  
// Otherwise it cannot post an update (i.e. tweet) to the Twitter account.

Chilkat.HttpRequest req = new Chilkat.HttpRequest();
req.AddParam("status","Maybe he'll finally find his keys. #peterfalk");

req.HttpVerb = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = new Chilkat.HttpResponse();
success = http.HttpReq("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json",req,resp);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText);
    return;

    // Display the JSON response.
    Debug.WriteLine(resp.BodyStr);
