(Go) QuickRequest Method - GET and DELETE

Demonstrate the QuickRequest method for sending HTTP requests that don't have a request body, such as for GET or DELETE requests.

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

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // Specifiy a session log file so we can see the exact request/response
    http.SetSessionLogFilename("c:/aaworkarea/sessionLog.txt")

    // Perhaps add a custom header or two..
    http.SetRequestHeader("x-exz-date","20201012T235046Z")
    http.SetRequestHeader("x-exz-id","1234")

    // Send a GET request to https://www.example.com/someting?param1=123&param2=abc
    url := "https://www.example.com/someting?param1=123&param2=abc"
    resp := http.QuickRequest("GET",url)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        return
    }

    // The GET request that is sent looks like this.
    // The Accept and Accept-Encoding headers are automatically added by default.

    // 	GET /someting?param1=123&param2=abc HTTP/1.1
    // 	Host: www.example.com
    // 	Accept: */*
    // 	Accept-Encoding: gzip
    // 	x-exz-date: 20201012T235046Z
    // 	x-exz-id: 1234

    // Get the response status
    statusCode := resp.StatusCode()
    fmt.Println("Response status: ", statusCode)

    // Get the response body
    fmt.Println(resp.BodyStr())

    resp.DisposeHttpResponse()

    // -------------------------------------------------------------
    // Let's say we want to send a DELETE request, and we only want to accept an application/json response,
    // and we don't want gzipped responses...

    // First remove the previously specified custom headers.
    http.ClearHeaders()

    // Indicate we only accept application/json non-gzipped responses.
    http.SetAccept("application/json")
    http.SetAllowGzip(false)

    // Send a DELETE request to https://www.example.com/deleteSomething
    url = "https://www.example.com/deleteSomething"
    resp = http.QuickRequest("DELETE",url)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        return
    }

    // The DELETE request that is sent looks like this.
    // The empty Accept-Encoding header value means we only want non-compressed responses.

    // 	DELETE /deleteSomething HTTP/1.1
    // 	Host: www.example.com
    // 	Accept: application/json
    // 	Accept-Encoding: 

    // Get the response status
    statusCode = resp.StatusCode()
    fmt.Println("Response status: ", statusCode)

    // Get the response body
    fmt.Println(resp.BodyStr())

    resp.DisposeHttpResponse()
