Demonstrates how to use HTTP/HTTPS with a SOCKS4 proxy. Visual FoxPro

LOCAL loHttp
LOCAL lcHtml

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

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

* Using a SOCKS4 proxy is just a matter of setting a few properties.
* Once these properties are set, all other coding is the same as when
* the connection is direct to the HTTP server.

* Set the SocksVersion property = 4 for SOCKS4
loHttp.SocksVersion = 4

* Set the SocksHostname to the SOCKS proxy domain name or IP address, 
* which may be IPv4 (dotted notation) or IPv6.
loHttp.SocksHostname = "192.168.1.100"

* The port where the SOCKS4 proxy is listening.
loHttp.SocksPort = 1080

* Now do whatever it is you need to do.  All communications will go through the proxy.
