var
success: Integer;
http: TChilkatHttp;
url: WideString;
requestBodyXml: WideString;
charset: WideString;
responseObj: IChilkatHttpResponse;
responseOut: TChilkatHttpResponse;

url := 'https://example.com/something';
requestBodyXml := '<something>...</something>';
charset := 'utf-8';

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  The PostXml method is deprecated:

responseObj := http.PostXml(url,requestBodyXml,charset);
if (http.LastMethodSuccess = 0) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(http.LastErrorText);
    Exit;
  end;

//  ...
//  ...

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  Do the equivalent using HttpStr.
//  Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
//  in the last argument and filled upon success.
