Glacier Download Archive

See more Amazon Glacier Examples

Demonstrates how to download an Amazon Glacier archive. Downloading a Glacier archive is a two step process. First an archive retrieval job is initiated. After it completes, the job output is downloaded (i.e. the archive contents are downloaded.)

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.78 or greater.

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

let rest = chilkat::Rest::new();

// Connect to the Amazon AWS REST server in the desired region.
let b_tls = true;
let port = 443;

// --------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 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

// if needed.

// 4) If the response status code indicates an error, get the JSON error response.
