Procedure Test

    Handle hoSb
    Integer i
    Handle hoCompress
    Variant hoCompressedBytes

    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    Get Create (RefClass(cComChilkatStringBuilder)) To hoSb

    Get ComGetAsString Of hoSb To sTemp1
    Get ComCompressString Of hoCompress sTemp1 To hoCompressedBytes

    // If the compressed data is desired in string format, then get the base64 representation of the bytes.
    Set ComEncodingMode Of hoCompress To "base64"
    Get ComGetAsString Of hoSb To sTemp1
    Get ComCompressStringENC Of hoCompress sTemp1 To sCompressedBase64
