Demonstrates URL encoding and decoding. Tcl

load ./chilkat.dll

set success 0

# To URL encoding a string:
set s "Why a > b?"

set sb [new_CkStringBuilder]

set success [CkStringBuilder_Append $sb $s]

# URL encode the string.
CkStringBuilder_Encode $sb "url" "utf-8"

# Show the URL encoded string:
set sEncoded [CkStringBuilder_getAsString $sb]
puts "$sEncoded"

# The result is:  Why%20a%20%3E%20b%3F

# If you prefer "+" instead of "%20" for SPACE chars:
set numReplaced [CkStringBuilder_Replace $sb "%20" "+"]
puts [CkStringBuilder_getAsString $sb]

# Output is:   Why+a+%3E+b%3F

# To decode:
CkStringBuilder_Decode $sb "url" "utf-8"
puts [CkStringBuilder_getAsString $sb]

# Result is: Why a > b?
