func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    // Lookup an IPv4 address: 149.250.207.170  (this was a randomly chosen address)
    var jsonStr: String? = http.quickGetStr(url: "http://api.db-ip.com/v2/free/149.250.207.170")
    if http.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    let json = CkoJsonObject()!
    json.emitCompact = false
    success = json.load(json: jsonStr)

    print("\(json.emit()!)")
