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

*  This example also assumes an OAuth2 access token was previously fetched.
*  and saved in a JSON file.  

*  First get our previously obtained access token.
*  {"access_token":"e6dqdG....mzjpT04w==","token_type":"Bearer","expires_in":2592000,"owner_id":999236}

*  Note: The same REST object, once connected, can be used for many requests.
*  The bAutoReconnect argument allows it to automatically reconnect as required for any subsequent request.
