    success := false

    //  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    req := chilkat.NewHttpRequest()
    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    //  The PROPFIND request to be sent will look similar to this:
    //  This is from RFC 4918 at http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4918#section-9.1.3

    //       PROPFIND /file HTTP/1.1
    //       Host: www.example.com
    //       Content-type: application/xml; charset="utf-8";
    //       Content-Length: xxxx
    //  
    //       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    //       <D:propfind xmlns:D="DAV:">
    //         <D:prop xmlns:R="http://ns.example.com/boxschema/">
    //           <R:bigbox/>
    //           <R:author/>
    //           <R:DingALing/>
    //           <R:Random/>
    //         </D:prop>
    //       </D:propfind>

    //  Build the HTTP request object. 

    //  The HTTP verb should be "PROPFIND";
    req.SetHttpVerb("PROPFIND")

    //  The Content-Type should be "application/xml", and
    //  the charset attribute in the Content-Type header should
    //  be utf-8:
    req.SetContentType("application/xml")
    req.SetCharset("utf-8")
    req.SetSendCharset(true)

    //  Load the request body with the XML.  Your application 
    //  is free to construct the XML using any means desired.
    //  Once the XML is prepared, load it into the request body
    //  like this:
    xmlBody := "This is the string that should contain the XML body..."
    success = req.LoadBodyFromString(xmlBody,"utf-8")
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(req.LastErrorText())
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        http.DisposeHttp()
        return
    }

    //  For this example, pretend the WEBDAV endpoint is:
    //  https://webdav.chilkatstorage.com/

    //  Note: There is no actual "chilkatstorage.com" site.  
    //  This is only an example...

    //  The "path" part of this endpoint URL is simply "/".

    //  Send the request to the WebDAV endpoint using 
    //  the HttpSReq method:

    resp := chilkat.NewHttpResponse()
    success = http.HttpSReq("webdav.chilkatstorage.com",443,true,req,resp)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        http.DisposeHttp()
        resp.DisposeHttpResponse()
        return
    }

    //  Get the XML response:
    var responseXml string
    responseXml = resp.BodyStr()
    fmt.Println("XML Response: ", responseXml)

    //  Get the response status code, such as 207
    var statusCode int
    statusCode = resp.StatusCode()
    fmt.Println("StatusCode = ", statusCode)

    req.DisposeHttpRequest()
    http.DisposeHttp()
