Dim success As Boolean
success = False

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http
Dim req As New Chilkat.HttpRequest
Dim resp As New Chilkat.HttpResponse

// Specify the details of the HTTP request.
req.HttpVerb = "POST"
req.ContentType = "application/json"
req.Path = "/echo_request_body.asp"

Dim requestBody As String
requestBody = "{""greeting"":""Hello World""}"
success = req.LoadBodyFromString(requestBody,"utf-8")

// Send a POST to https://chilkatsoft.com/echo_request_body.asp with a JSON request body.
success = http.HttpSReq("chilkatsoft.com",443,True,req,resp)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(http.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

System.DebugLog("Response Status Code: " + Str(resp.StatusCode))

// Examine the request we sent.
// The LastHeader property stores the HTTP request header of the most recent request sent,
// and in this instance, the response body mirrors the request body.
System.DebugLog(http.LastHeader)
System.DebugLog(resp.BodyStr)

// Output:

// POST /echo_request_body.asp HTTP/1.1
// Host: chilkatsoft.com
