Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim http As ChilkatHttp
http.Initialize("http")

Dim resp As ChilkatHttpResponse
resp.Initialize
success = http.HttpStr("GET", "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/sample.json", "", "", "", resp)
If success = False Then
    Log(http.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If


'  A JSON object is JSON that begins with "{" and ends with "}"
Dim json As ChilkatJsonObject
json.Initialize

'  If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the JSON from the HttpResponse to the JsonObject, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
'  This could save memory for extremely large JSON responses.
resp.UncommonOptions = "TakeResponseBody"

resp.GetBodyJson(json)

json.EmitCompact = False
Log(json.Emit)

'  Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
Log("----")
Log(resp.BodyStr)
