' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Dim http As New ChilkatHttp

http.OAuth1 = 1
http.OAuthVerifier = ""
http.OAuthConsumerKey = "my-consumer-key"
http.OAuthConsumerSecret = "my-consumer-secret"
http.OAuthToken = "my-access-token"
http.OAuthTokenSecret = "my-token-secret"

' Send the same status update as shown in this example:
' https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/post/statuses/update

' IMPORTANT: Make sure this app has read/write access.  
' Otherwise it cannot post an update (i.e. tweet) to the Twitter account.

Dim req As New ChilkatHttpRequest
req.AddParam "status","Maybe he'll finally find his keys. #peterfalk"

Dim resp As ChilkatHttpResponse

Set resp = http.PostUrlEncoded("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json",req)
