    // This example assumes we previously obtained an access token
    let oauth2 = CkoOAuth2()!
    oauth2.accessToken = "FACEBOOK-ACCESS-TOKEN"

    let rest = CkoRest()!

    // Connect to Facebook and send the following GET request:

    // GET /v2.7/me HTTP/1.1
    // Host: graph.facebook.com
    var bAutoReconnect: Bool = true
    var success: Bool = rest.connect("graph.facebook.com", port: 443, tls: true, autoReconnect: bAutoReconnect)
    if success != true {
        print("\(rest.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access key)
    rest.setAuthOAuth2(oauth2)

    var responseJson: String? = rest.fullRequestNoBody("GET", uriPath: "/v2.7/me")
    if rest.lastMethodSuccess != true {
        print("\(rest.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("\(responseJson!)")

    // The responseJson looks like this:
    // {"name":"John Doe","id":"10111011320111110"}
