' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Rest")
set rest = Server.CreateObject("Chilkat.Rest")

' Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server in the desired region.

port = 443
bAutoReconnect = 1

' Provide AWS credentials.
' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.AuthAws")

' --------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Note: The above REST connection and setup of the AWS credentials
' can be done once.  After connecting, any number of REST calls can be made.
' The "auto reconnect" property passed to rest.Connect indicates that if
' the connection is lost, a REST method call will automatically reconnect
' if needed.
