bool success = false;

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();
Chilkat.HttpRequest req = new Chilkat.HttpRequest();
Chilkat.HttpResponse resp = new Chilkat.HttpResponse();

// Specify the details of the HTTP request.
req.HttpVerb = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/json";
req.Path = "/echo_request_body.asp";

string requestBody = "{\"greeting\":\"Hello World\"}";
req.LoadBodyFromString(requestBody,"utf-8");

// Send a POST to https://chilkatsoft.com/echo_request_body.asp with a JSON request body.
success = http.HttpSReq("chilkatsoft.com",443,true,req,resp);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Debug.WriteLine("Response Status Code: " + Convert.ToString(resp.StatusCode));

// Examine the request we sent.
// The LastHeader property stores the HTTP request header of the most recent request sent,
// and in this instance, the response body mirrors the request body.
Debug.WriteLine(http.LastHeader);
Debug.WriteLine(resp.BodyStr);

// Output:

// POST /echo_request_body.asp HTTP/1.1
// Host: chilkatsoft.com
// Content-Type: application/json
// Content-Length: 26
// 
// {"greeting":"Hello World"}
