Create S3 Bucket in a Region

See more Amazon S3 Examples

Demonstrates how to create an S3 bucket in a specified region. This example will create a bucket in the eu-west-2 region. Go

    success := false

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

    // Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server.
    bTls := true
    port := 443

    // We'll send a PUT request having an XML body such as this:
    // <CreateBucketConfiguration xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/"> 
    //   <LocationConstraint>BucketRegion</LocationConstraint>

    // do not add the LocationConstraint.  Adding a LocationConstraint of "us-east-1"
    // causes an error "The specified location-constraint is not valid."
    // By default, the bucket is created in us-east-1 by sending a PUT with an empty body.
    // --------------------------------------------------------------

    // In this case, the bucket name is "chilkateuwest2".
