(PowerBuilder) Azure Storage: Upload Binary Data to Block Blob

Sample code to upload binary bytes to a block blob in Azure Cloud Storage. This creates the block blob, or replaces an existing block blob.

Note: The maximum size of a block blob created by uploading in a single step is 64MB. For larger files, the upload must be broken up into blocks. There is another Chilkat example for that..

// Azure Blob Service Example: Upload binary bytes to a block blob.
// This creates a new block blob or replaces an existing one in its entirety.

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

    destroy loo_Rest

    return
end if

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
li_BTls = 1
li_Port = 443
li_BAutoReconnect = 1
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".

    Write-Debug loo_Rest.LastErrorText

end if

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
loo_AzAuth = create oleobject

loo_AzAuth.Account = "chilkat"

// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.

// Note: The application does not need to explicitly set the following
// headers: Content-Length, x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
// are automatically set by Chilkat.

// IMPORTANT: Make sure to set the x-ms-blob-type header:
li_Success = loo_Rest.AddHeader("x-ms-blob-type","BlockBlob")

// For this example, we'll just load a JPG file into memory..
