LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loHttp
LOCAL lcVerb
LOCAL lcUrl
LOCAL lcLocalFilePath
LOCAL lcContentType
LOCAL loResponseObj
LOCAL loResponseOut

lnSuccess = 0

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

lcVerb = "POST"
lcUrl = "https://example.com/"
lcLocalFilePath = "c:/temp/requestBodyContent.dat"
lcContentType = "application/octet-stream"

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The PFile method is deprecated:

loResponseObj = loHttp.PFile(lcVerb,lcUrl,lcLocalFilePath,lcContentType,0,0)
IF (loHttp.LastMethodSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* ...
* ...

RELEASE loResponseObj

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

loResponseOut = CreateObject('Chilkat.HttpResponse')
lnSuccess = loHttp.HttpFile(lcVerb,lcUrl,lcLocalFilePath,lcContentType,loResponseOut)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    RELEASE loResponseOut
    CANCEL
ENDIF

RELEASE loHttp
RELEASE loResponseOut
