// --------------------------------------------------
// This example borrows the code from the REST using SOCKS Proxy example.
// We first use the Chilkat Socket object to establish a connection to the WebSocket server through a SOCKS proxy.
// Next, the Rest object uses the Socket object for its connection.
// Finally, the WebSocket object uses the Rest object for its connection.  
//

// (At this point, we're done with the rest and socket objects...)
