var success = false;

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

var http = new CkHttp();

// Demonstrate sending a GET request with query parameters.
var queryParams = new CkJsonObject();
queryParams.UpdateInt("limit",100);
queryParams.UpdateString("email","joe@example.com");
queryParams.UpdateString("token","VGhlIHF1aWNrIGJyb3duIGZveCBqdW1wZWQgb3ZlciB0aGUgbGF6eSBkb2cuLi4=");

// Set a session log filename so we can examine the exact request that is sent.
var sessionLogPath = "c:/temp/qa_output/sessionLog.txt";
http.SessionLogFilename = sessionLogPath;

// Send the GET request to an endpoint.  We don't care about the response. The purpose of this example
// is to see the exact HTTP request that is sent..
var resp = new CkHttpResponse();
success = http.HttpParams("GET","https://chilkatsoft.com/echo_request_body.asp",queryParams,resp);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var fac = new CkFileAccess();
var sessionLog = fac.ReadEntireTextFile(sessionLogPath,"utf-8");
console.log(sessionLog);
success = fac.FileDelete(sessionLogPath);

// This is the exact GET request that was sent.
// Notice how each query parameter is URL encoded and added to the HTTP start line of the request.

// GET /echo_request_body.asp?limit=100&email=joe%40example.com&token=VGhlIHF1aWNrIGJyb3duIGZveCBqdW1wZWQgb3ZlciB0aGUgbGF6eSBkb2cuLi4%3D HTTP/1.1
