func chilkatTest() {
    // It requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    // This application uses application-only authentication.
    // It uses the token previously obtained as shown in this example:  Twitter Application-Only Authentication

    let http = CkoHttp()!

    // Set the OAuth2 token previously obtained via application-only authentication.
    http.authToken = "TWITTER_OAUTH2_TOKEN"

    // A sample GET looks like this:
    // GET https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/show.json?id=210462857140252672
    var url: String? = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/show.json?id=TWEET_ID"
    var strJson: String? = http.quickGetStr(url: url)
    if http.lastMethodSuccess != true {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

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

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