func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    var verb: String? = "PUT"
    var url: String? = "https://example.com/"
    var textData: String? = "This is the HTTP request body"
    var charset: String? = "utf-8"
    var contentType: String? = "text/plain"

    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // The PutText method is deprecated:

    var responseBody: String? = http.putText(url, textData: textData, charset: charset, contentType: contentType, md5: false, gzip: false)
    if http.lastMethodSuccess == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // ...
    // ...

    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // Do the equivalent using HttpStr.
    // Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
    // in the last argument and filled upon success.

    let responseOut = CkoHttpResponse()!
    success = http.httpStr(verb, url: url, bodyStr: textData, charset: charset, contentType: contentType, response: responseOut)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    responseBody = responseOut.bodyStr
