HTTP POST JSON (application/json)

Demonstrates how to send a JSON POST using the application/json content-type. Lianja

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

loReq = createobject("CkHttpRequest")
loHttp = createobject("CkHttp")

//  If any custom headers need to be included with the POST, add them
//  by calling SetRequestHeader

//  Note: An application should never explicitly set the Content-Length header.
//  The Content-Length is automatically computed and added by Chilkat.

//  Here are some examples of custom headers.  

//  Perhaps your particular app needs some sort of custom-computed Authorization header...
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Authorization","my-custom-computed-auth-value")

//  Another custom header for some hypothetical app:
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("X-Pass-Timestamp","my-custom-computed-timestamp-value")

//  The following "Accept" header may be set, but it really isn't necessary:
loHttp.SetRequestHeader("Accept","application/json")

lcJsonText = "{ some JSON text ... }"

//  To use SSL/TLS, simply use "https://" in the URL.
