(using AWS Signature Version 2) Streaming Download to File

See more Amazon S3 (new) Examples

The main purpose of this example is to demonstrate how to use the older Signature Version 2 authentication w/ S3. It uses V2 authentication to download a file. C++

#include <CkRest.h>
#include <CkAuthAws.h>
#include <CkStream.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)

    bool success = false;

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

    CkRest rest;

    // Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server.
    bool bTls = true;
    int port = 443;
    bool bAutoReconnect = true;
    // The file is located in the bucket named "chilkat100", which becomes part of the domain:
    success = rest.Connect("chilkat100.s3.amazonaws.com",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect);

    // Provide AWS credentials for the REST call.
    CkAuthAws authAws;
    authAws.put_AccessKey("AWS_ACCESS_KEY");
    authAws.put_SecretKey("AWS_SECRET_KEY");
    authAws.put_ServiceName("s3");

    // For AWS Signature Version 2, the following two properties need to be set:
    authAws.put_SignatureVersion(2);
    // See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/RESTAuthentication.html#ConstructingTheCanonicalizedResourceElement
    authAws.put_CanonicalizedResourceV2("/chilkat100/starfish.jpg");

        // set the stream's sink to a file, it will stream directly
        // to the file.
