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

loo_Req = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.HttpRequest" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Req.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.HttpRequest")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Req
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if
loo_Http = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.Http" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Http.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Http")

// The PUT request to be sent will look like this:

// PUT /request HTTP/1.1
// Content-Type: application/jsonrequest
// Cookie: JSESSIONID=1234
// Content-Encoding: identity
// Host: json.penzance.org
// Accept: application/jsonrequest
// Accept-Encoding:
// Content-Length: 72
// 
// {"user":"doctoravatar@penzance.com","forecast":7,"t":"vlIj","zip":94089}

// First, remove default header fields that would be automatically
// sent.  (These headers are harmless, and shouldn't need to 
// be suppressed, but just in case...)
loo_Http.AcceptCharset = ""
loo_Http.UserAgent = ""
loo_Http.AcceptLanguage = ""

// Suppress the Accept-Encoding header by disallowing 
// a gzip response:
loo_Http.AllowGzip = 0

// If a Cookie needs to be added...
loo_Http.SetRequestHeader("Cookie","JSESSIONID=1234")

// Add the Content-Encoding: identity header.
loo_Http.SetRequestHeader("Content-Encoding","identity")

// Modify the default "Accept" header:
loo_Http.Accept = "application/jsonrequest"

ls_JsonText = "{~"user~":~"doctoravatar@penzance.com~",~"forecast~":7,~"t~":~"vlIj~",~"zip~":94089}"

// To use SSL/TLS, simply use "https://" in the URL.

// IMPORTANT: Make sure to change the URL, JSON text,
// and other data items to your own values.  The URL used
// in this example will not actually work.

ls_ResponseBody = loo_Http.PutText("http://json.penzance.org/request",ls_JsonText,"utf-8","application/jsonrequest",0,0)
if loo_Http.LastMethodSuccess <> 1 then
    Write-Debug loo_Http.LastErrorText
else
    // Display the JSON response.
    Write-Debug ls_ResponseBody
