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

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

* Implements the following CURL command:

* curl -X POST https://example.com/auth/o2/token \
*   -H "Host: api.amazon.com" \
*   -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8" \
*   -d "grant_type=refresh_token" \
*   -d "refresh_token=Aztr|..." \
*   -d "client_id=foodev" \
*   -d "client_secret=Y76SDl2F"

* Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
* Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

* Success returns this JSON:

* {
*   "access_token": "Atza|...",
*   "refresh_token": "Atzr|...",
*   "token_type": "bearer",
*   "expires_in": 3600
* }

* Save the JSON token to a file for use in subsequent calls.
* (this example is passing a relative file path.  You don't need to save to a file
* if, for example, you keep the access token in-memory for subsequent use...)
