bool success = false;

Chilkat.Socket socket = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = socket.Connect("example.com",443,true,5000);

//  ...
//  ...

//  Duplicate the socket to share the same connection across threads.
//  In a multithreaded application, each thread should use its own socket object. For example:

//  - The main thread can use the original socket for reading.
//  - A secondary thread can use a duplicate for writing.
//  - Another thread can use a separate duplicate to monitor the connection status.

Chilkat.Socket socket_for_sending = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = socket.DupSocket(socket_for_sending);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

Chilkat.Socket socket_for_monitor = new Chilkat.Socket();
success = socket.DupSocket(socket_for_monitor);
if (success == false) {
    Debug.WriteLine(socket.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  All three socket objects: socket, socket_for_sending, and socket_for_monitor share the same underlying connection.
