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

http = chilkat.CkHttp()

# Implements the following CURL command:

# curl -H "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" \
# "https://api.smsapi.com/sms.do?from=sender_name&to=44123456789&message=message_content&format=json"

# Use the following online tool to generate HTTP code from a CURL command
# Convert a cURL Command to HTTP Source Code

# Adds the "Authorization: Bearer token_api_oauth" header.
http.put_AuthToken("token_api_oauth")

messageContent = "Hello\r\nThis is a test\r\nwith multiple lines of text."

# Given that our message contentn has newlines, we obviously cannot put newlines in a URL without them being URL encoded..
# Therefore.. URL encode..
