(C#) S3 Get Bucket Policy

Demonstrates how to send a GET request to fetch the policy of a specified bucket. The following information is quoted from the AWS REST API reference documentation at http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/RESTBucketGETpolicy.html

To use this operation, you must have GetPolicy permissions on the specified bucket, and you must be the bucket owner.

If you don't have GetPolicy permissions, Amazon S3 returns a 403 Access Denied error. If you have the correct permissions, but you're not the bucket owner, Amazon S3 returns a 405 Method Not Allowed error. If the bucket does not have a policy, Amazon S3 returns a 404 Policy Not found error. There are restrictions about who can create bucket policies and which objects in a bucket they can apply to. For more information, go to Using Bucket Policies.

Important: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or greater.
