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

loHttp = createobject("CkHttp")

// Using a SOCKS5 proxy is just a matter of setting a few properties.
// Once these properties are set, all other coding is the same as when
// the connection is direct to the HTTP server.

// Set the SocksVersion property = 5 for SOCKS5
loHttp.SocksVersion = 5

// Set the SocksHostname to the SOCKS proxy domain name or IP address, 
// which may be IPv4 (dotted notation) or IPv6.
loHttp.SocksHostname = "192.168.1.100"

// The port where the SOCKS5 proxy is listening.
loHttp.SocksPort = 1080

// If the SOCKS5 proxy itself requires authentication, set the username/password 
// like this.  (otherwise leave the username/password empty)
loHttp.SocksUsername = "myUsername"
loHttp.SocksPassword = "myPassword"

// Now do whatever it is you need to do.  All communications will go through the proxy.
