Provides instructions for replacing deprecated PostJson method calls with HttpStr. Visual FoxPro

LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loHttp
LOCAL lcUrl
LOCAL lcJsonText
LOCAL loResponseObj
LOCAL loResponseOut

lnSuccess = 0

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

lcUrl = "https://example.com/something"
lcJsonText = "{ ... }"

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The PostJson method is deprecated:

loResponseObj = loHttp.PostJson(lcUrl,lcJsonText)
IF (loHttp.LastMethodSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* ...
* ...

RELEASE loResponseObj

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Do the equivalent using HttpStr.
* 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.HttpStr("POST",lcUrl,lcJsonText,"utf-8","application/json",loResponseOut)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    RELEASE loResponseOut
    CANCEL
ENDIF

RELEASE loHttp
RELEASE loResponseOut
