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

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

' Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
' logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a file.

' The SessionLogFilename may be used with any of the HTTP
' methods for sending GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc.
http.SessionLogFilename = "c:/temp/httpSessionLog.txt"

' Try a simple HTTP GET and then examine the session log:
Dim html As String = Await http.QuickGetStrAsync("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html")
If (http.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' The contents of the session log file after doing 
' the GET request:
