loHttp = createobject("CkHttp")

// Returns the contents of the response body.
lcJsonText = loHttp.QuickGetStr("https://chilkatsoft.com/helloWorld.json")

// Examine the response status code.
? "response status code: " + str(loHttp.LastStatus)

// Examine the response status text
? "response status text: " + loHttp.LastStatusText

// Examine the full response header.
? "response header:"
? loHttp.LastResponseHeader
? "----"

// Examine the response content-type
? "LastContentType = " + loHttp.LastContentType

// Examine the response last-mod date
? "LastModDate = " + loHttp.LastModDate

// Load the response header into a Chilkat MIME object to access its fields individually.
loMime = createobject("CkMime")

// Get a header field value by name:
