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

    // This example uses a previously obtained access token having permission for the 
    // scope "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform"

    // In this example, Get Google Cloud Storage OAuth2 Access Token, 
    // the service account access token was saved to a text file.  This example fetches the access token from the file..
    sbToken := chilkat.NewStringBuilder()
    sbToken.LoadFile("qa_data/tokens/googleCloudStorageAccessToken.txt","utf-8")

    // Send a POST equivalent to this curl command.
    // The content of the file is contained in the request body.

    // curl -X POST --data-binary @[OBJECT] \
    //     -H "Authorization: Bearer [OAUTH2_TOKEN]" \
    //     -H "Content-Type: [OBJECT_CONTENT_TYPE]" \
    //     "https://www.googleapis.com/upload/storage/v1/b/[BUCKET_NAME]/o?uploadType=media&name=[OBJECT_NAME]"

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()
    http.SetAuthToken(*sbToken.GetAsString())

    // Create an XML document, and write it to a StringBuilder.
    // We'll be uploading this XML document.
    xml := chilkat.NewXml()
    xml.SetTag("note")
    xml.UpdateChildContent("to","Tove")
    xml.UpdateChildContent("from","Jani")
    xml.UpdateChildContent("heading","Reminder")
    xml.UpdateChildContent("body","Don't forget me this weekend!")

    // Write the XML to sbXml.
    sbXml := chilkat.NewStringBuilder()
    xml.GetXmlSb(sbXml)

    // sbXml contains this:

    // <note>
    //     <to>Tove</to>
    //     <from>Jani</from>
    //     <heading>Reminder</heading>
    //     <body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
    // </note>

    // Construct a URL to upload to an object named "test.xml" in the "chilkat-ocean" bucket.
