Send requests to a server using TideSDK

var Call = function(options) {
//Private
var serverURL = options.url,
method = options.method,
timeout = options.timeout;

/**
* Private method used to send the request to the server
* @param {object} params
* @returns string|boolean|null
*/
var callAction = function(params) {
var httpClient = Ti.Network.createHTTPClient(),
result = null;

httpClient.setTimeout(timeout);

}

return result;
};

//Public
return {

};

// HOW TO USE
var initOptions = {
url: 'http://www.example.com',
method: 'POST',
