# Using a SOCKS5 proxy is just a matter of setting a few properties.
# Once these properties are set, all other coding is the same as when
# the connection is direct to the HTTP server.

# Set the SocksVersion property = 5 for SOCKS5
CkHttp_put_SocksVersion $http 5

# Set the SocksHostname to the SOCKS proxy domain name or IP address, 
# which may be IPv4 (dotted notation) or IPv6.
CkHttp_put_SocksHostname $http "192.168.1.100"

# The port where the SOCKS5 proxy is listening.
CkHttp_put_SocksPort $http 1080

# If the SOCKS5 proxy itself requires authentication, set the username/password 
# like this.  (otherwise leave the username/password empty)
CkHttp_put_SocksUsername $http "myUsername"
CkHttp_put_SocksPassword $http "myPassword"

# Now do whatever it is you need to do.  All communications will go through the proxy.
