Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

bool success;

//  Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = http.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial");
if (success != true) {
    textBox1.Text += http.LastErrorText + "\r\n";
    return;
}

//  Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
//  logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a log 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:
string html;
html = http.QuickGetStr("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html");
if (html == null ) {
    textBox1.Text += http.LastErrorText + "\r\n";
    return;
}

//  Here are the contents of the session log file after doing
//  the GET request:

//
