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

CkoHttp *http = [[CkoHttp alloc] init];

// Send a GET request to download a PDF into an HTTP response object.
CkoHttpResponse *resp = [http QuickGetObj: @"https://www.chilkatsoft.com/hello.pdf"];
if (http.LastMethodSuccess == NO) {
    // This will happen if the request could not be sent, or if no response was received.
    NSLog(@"%@",http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Get the response status
int statusCode = [resp.StatusCode intValue];
NSLog(@"%@%d",@"Response status: ",statusCode);

// In this example, we want a 200 status code.
if (statusCode == 200) {
    // Save the response body to a file.
    // Note: This is only for the sake of this example.
    // It's better to call the Download method to download directly to a file.
    BOOL success = [resp SaveBodyBinary: @"qa_output/hello.pdf"];
    if (success == NO) {
        NSLog(@"%@",@"Failed to write output file.");
    }
    else {
        NSLog(@"%@",@"Wrote hello.pdf");
    }

}
else {
    // Perhaps we have response body with an error message..
    NSLog(@"%@",resp.BodyStr);
