Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

Dim verb As String = "POST"
Dim url As String = "https://example.com/"
Dim bdRequestBody As New Chilkat.BinData
Dim contentType As String = "application/octet-stream"

' ------------------------------------------------------------------------
' The PBinaryBd method is deprecated:

Dim responseObj As Chilkat.HttpResponse = http.PBinaryBd(verb,url,bdRequestBody,contentType,False,False)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If


' ...
' ...



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

Dim responseOut As New Chilkat.HttpResponse
Dim success As Boolean = http.HttpBd(verb,url,bdRequestBody,contentType,responseOut)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If
