LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL loHttp
LOCAL lcUrl
LOCAL lcRequestBodyXml
LOCAL lcCharset
LOCAL loResponseObj
LOCAL loResponseOut

lnSuccess = 0

loHttp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Http')

lcUrl = "https://example.com/something"
lcRequestBodyXml = "<something>...</something>"
lcCharset = "utf-8"

* ------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The PostXml method is deprecated:

loResponseObj = loHttp.PostXml(lcUrl,lcRequestBodyXml,lcCharset)
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,lcRequestBodyXml,lcCharset,"application/xml",loResponseOut)
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loHttp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loHttp
    RELEASE loResponseOut
    CANCEL
ENDIF

RELEASE loHttp
RELEASE loResponseOut
