* Note: Requires Chilkat v9.5.0.65 or greater.

* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

* Load our previously obtained access token. (see PayPal OAuth2 Access Token)

* Build the Authorization request header field value.

loSbAuth.Append(loJsonToken.StringOf("access_token"))

* Make the initial connection.
* A single REST object, once connected, can be used for many PayPal REST API calls.
* The auto-reconnect indicates that if the already-established HTTPS connection is closed,
* then it will be automatically re-established as needed.
