http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()

# Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
jsonStr = http.quickGetStr("http://ip-api.com/json/149.250.207.170")
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";

json = Chilkat::CkJsonObject.new()
json.put_EmitCompact(false)
success = json.Load(jsonStr)

print json.emit() + "\n";
