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

responseObj := CkHttp_PostXml(http,url,requestBodyXml,charset);
if (CkHttp_getLastMethodSuccess(http) = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkHttp__lastErrorText(http));
    Exit;
  end;

//  ...
//  ...

CkHttpResponse_Dispose(responseObj);

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