void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    HCkStringBuilderW sb;
    BOOL success;



    sb = CkStringBuilderW_Create();

    // Here we wish to URL decode the following string:
    success = CkStringBuilderW_Append(sb,L"%D7%9E%D7%95%D7%A6%D7%A81.jpg");

    // Notice the above string contains Hebrew chars using the utf-8 byte representation.
    // See https://www.loc.gov/marc/specifications/codetables/BasicHebrew.html
    // For example:  D79E is the HEBREW LETTER MEM

    // Therefore, when we decode to binary bytes, we must interpret the bytes as utf-8
    // to get characters.

    // Tell Chilkat to URL decode like this:
    success = CkStringBuilderW_Decode(sb,L"url",L"utf-8");

    // sb now contains the decoded string.
    wprintf(L"%s\n",CkStringBuilderW_getAsString(sb));


    CkStringBuilderW_Dispose(sb);
