(Swift 3,4,5...) Upload Files to a Web Server - Simplest Example

This is the simplest example for uploading some files to a web server. the BlockingUpload call is synchronous and returns when the upload is finished (or failed).

A server-side C# example showing how to receive an upload is located at C# ASP.NET Code to Receive Upload

func chilkatTest() {
    let upload = CkoUpload()!

    // Specify the page (ASP, ASP.NET, Perl, Python, Ruby, CGI, etc)
    // that will receive and process the HTTP Upload.
    upload.hostname = "www.mywebserver.com"
    upload.path = "/receiveUpload.aspx"

    // Add one or more files to be uploaded.
    upload.addFileReference("file1", path: "dude.gif")
    upload.addFileReference("file2", path: "swordfish.xml")
    upload.addFileReference("file3", path: "sample.doc")

    // Do the upload.  The method returns when the upload
    // is completed.
    // This component also includes asynchronous upload capability,
    // which is demonstrated in another example.
    var success: Bool = upload.blockingUpload()
    if success != true {
        print("\(upload.lastErrorText!)")
    }
    else {
        print("Files uploaded!")
    }
