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

    If http.i = 0

    ; Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
    ; logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a file.

    ; The SessionLogFilename may be used with any of the HTTP
    ; methods for sending GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc.
    CkHttp::setCkSessionLogFilename(http, "c:/temp/httpSessionLog.txt")

    ; Try a simple HTTP GET and then examine the session log:
    html.s = CkHttp::ckQuickGetStr(http,"http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html")
    If CkHttp::ckLastMethodSuccess(http) <> 1
        Debug CkHttp::ckLastErrorText(http)
        CkHttp::ckDispose(http)
        ProcedureReturn
    EndIf

    ; The contents of the session log file after doing 
    ; the GET request:
