# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# Imagine a URL that contains two params: one named "xyz" and one named "name".
# We want to send a POST to it, but with 2 additional params in the body of the request.
# The PostUrlEncoded method cannot be used because it parses the URL and puts all the params
# in the HTTP body.  The SynchronousRequest method should instead be used so
# that the req.Path can be explicitly specified.

# Provide a session log path so we can visually verify the exact request sent.
# (This is only for debugging purposes.)
