S3 Upload the Parts for a Multipart Upload

See more Amazon S3 (new) Examples

This example uploads a large file in parts. The multipart upload needs to have been first initiated prior to uploading the parts.

See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/mpUploadUploadPart.html for more information about uploading parts.

// Complete Multipart Upload
// Abort Multipart Upload

// XML response contains the UploadId.  We'll begin by loading that XML and getting
// the Upload ID.

// and its corresponding ETag, which is received in the response for each part.
// There can be up to 10000 parts, numbered 1 to 10000.  
// After all parts have been uploaded, the final step will be to complete
