Demonstrates an XML-RPC call to WordPress. WordPress ships with two test methods in its XML-RPC server, one of which is the "demo.sayHello" method. This example demonstrates sending the "demo.sayHello" XML-RPC request to Chilkat's cknotes.com Wordpress server.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.
