// 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:

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

// This example shows how to use the Chilkat socket object's connection.
