Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-9.5.0-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

$upload = New-Object Chilkat.Upload

# Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
# that will receive and process the HTTP Upload.
$upload.Hostname = "www.mywebserver.com"
$upload.Path = "/receiveUpload.aspx"

# Add one or more files to be uploaded.
$upload.AddFileReference("file1","dude.gif")
$upload.AddFileReference("file2","swordfish.xml")
$upload.AddFileReference("file3","sample.doc")

# Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
# is completed.
# This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
# which is demonstrated in another example.
$success = $upload.BlockingUpload()
if ($success -ne $true) {
    $($upload.LastErrorText)
}

    $("Files uploaded!")
