rest = chilkat.CkRest()

# Connect to the server using TLS
bAutoReconnect = False
success = rest.Connect("example.com",443,True,bAutoReconnect)
if (success == False):
    print(rest.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# Send a GET request to https://example.com/some/path 
success = rest.SendReqNoBody("GET","/some/path")
if (success == False):
    print(rest.lastErrorText())
