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

http.set_aws_access_key("AWS_ACCESS_KEY");

// Insert your secret key here:
http.set_aws_secret_key("AWS_SECRET_KEY");

// In this example, my bucket is "chilkat100".
// It contains a number of folders, one of which is named "images".
// I want to get a list of all sub-folders under the "images" folder

// If the response status code was not 200, then the XML response is not a 
// listing of objects, but instead contains error information.
