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

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.Http')
loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

* Implements the following CURL command:

* curl -i \
* -X POST \
* -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
* -H "Accept: application/json" \
* -H "Authorization: API_KEY" \
* -d '{"content": "Test Message Text", "to": ["PHONE_NUMBER"], "from": "FROM_PHONE_NUMBER" }' \
* -s https://platform.clickatell.com/messages

* The following JSON is sent in the request body.

* {
*   "content": "Test Message Text",
*   "to": [
*     "PHONE_NUMBER"
*   ]
* }

* For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject('Chilkat_9_5_0.JsonObject')
loJson = CreateObject('Chilkat.JsonObject')
loJson.UpdateString("content","Test Message Text")
loJson.UpdateString("to[0]","PHONE_NUMBER")
loJson.UpdateString("from","FROM_PHONE_NUMBER")

loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Authorization","API_KEY")
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Accept","application/json")
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/json")
