// The version number (9_5_0) should match version of the Chilkat extension used, omitting the micro-version number.
// For example, if using Chilkat v9.5.0.48, then include as shown here:
include("chilkat_9_5_0.php");

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

$rest = new CkRest();

//  Connect to the REST server.
$bTls = false;
$port = 80;
$bAutoReconnect = true;
$success = $rest->Connect('dev.markitondemand.com',$port,$bTls,$bAutoReconnect);

//  Get a stock quote:
$success = $rest->AddQueryParam('symbol','AAPL');

if ($rest->get_LastMethodSuccess() != true) {
    print $rest->lastErrorText() . "\n";
    exit;

//  If successful, XML such as shown below is returned.

//  Get the LastPrice
print 'LastPrice: ' . $xml->getChildContent('LastPrice') . "\n";
