func chilkatTest() {
    // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    let http = CkoHttp()

    // Setting the AuthToken property causes the "Authorization: Bearer <token>" header to be added to each request.
    // This applies to any of the Chilkat method calls that send a GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, or anything else..
    http.AuthToken = "ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017"

    // For example:
    var responseStr: String? = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.chilkatsoft.com/helloWorld.xml")
    print("\(responseStr!)")

    // The following HTTP request is sent in the above call.

    // GET /helloWorld.xml HTTP/1.1
    // Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
    // Accept: */*
    // Accept-Encoding: gzip
    // Authorization: Bearer ya29.a0Ad52N3_4P_LpZS......WZr44LJ6w017
