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

    // This example will send a POST with HTTP Basic Authentication to 
    // https://gw-fatoora.zatca.sa/e-invoicing/simulation/invoices/clearance/single

    // NOTE: At the time of this writing, I don't know for sure if the above URL is correct.
    // 
    // The body of the POST will contain JSON formatted as such:

    // {
    //   "summary": "Standard Invoice",
    //   "value": {
    //     "invoiceHash": "PEx8bNFcEMEpHzUVvQntQI6ot8eFqTT/l59b+H1HqX4=",
    //     "uuid": "16e78469-64af-406d-9cfd-895e724198f0",
    //     "invoice": "PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0iVVRGLTgiPz4KPEl....."
    //   }
    // }

    // The above JSON is created from the signed XML invoice, such as the following:

    // *** Look at the above base64 data for the invoiceHash and uuid.  These values are found in the invoice as shown below.
    // *** We'll write code to load the signed invoice into a Chilkat XML object, grab the invoice hash and the uuid,
    // *** and then construct the above JSON, which will then be sent in a POST.  (See below...)
