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

CkoSocket *socket = [[CkoSocket alloc] init];

// To use a SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxy, simply set the following
// properties prior to calling Connect.  The connection may be SSL/TLS or 
// non-secure - both will work with a SOCKS proxy.
// The SOCKS hostname may be a domain name or 
// IP address:
socket.SocksHostname = @"www.mysocksproxyserver.com";
socket.SocksPort = [NSNumber numberWithInt:1080];
socket.SocksUsername = @"myProxyLogin";
socket.SocksPassword = @"myProxyPassword";
// Set the SOCKS version to 4 or 5 based on the version
// of the SOCKS proxy server:
socket.SocksVersion = [NSNumber numberWithInt:5];
// Note: SOCKS4 servers only support usernames without passwords.
// SOCKS5 servers support full login/password authentication.

// Connect to port 5555 of 192.168.1.108.
// hostname may be a domain name or IP address.

// Wait a max of 20 seconds (20000 millsec)
