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

$oMime = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Mime")

;  In this example, we have a MIME file containing 8bit (non-encoded) binary data,
;  and it is what I call "headless".  MIME is headless when it omits
;  the top-level header.  The file we have here begins with the first
;  boundary string.

;  The structure the MIME to be loaded is:

;  multipart/mixed (inferred because it is headless)
;      application/xop+xml
;      image/jpeg
;      image/gif
;      image/gif
;  

$bSuccess = $oMime.LoadMimeFile("qa_data/mime/headless_binary_soap_mtom_mime.mim")
If ($bSuccess = False) Then
    ConsoleWrite($oMime.LastErrorText & @CRLF)
    Exit
EndIf
