    var port: Int = 443

    azAuth.account = "chilkat"

    // This causes the "x-ms-version: 2020-08-04" header to be automatically added.
    azAuth.xMsVersion = "2020-08-04"

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

    // The preflight blob request requires the following two HTTP headers.
    // The Origin is the domain from which the actual request will be issued.
    success = rest.addHeader("Origin", value: "www.contoso.com")
    // The Access-Control-Request-Method is the HTTP method (such as GET, POST, PUT, etc.) of the actual request.
    success = rest.addHeader("Access-Control-Request-Method", value: "PUT")

    // The expected response is a 202 response status code with no response body.
    // The name of the container or blob resource in this example is "test". (Replace "test" with your container name.)
    var responseStr: String? = rest.fullRequestNoBody("OPTIONS", uriPath: "/test")
    if rest.lastMethodSuccess != true {

        return
    }

    // When successful, the Azure Storage service will respond with a 200 response code,
    // with no response body.

    // If CORS is not enabled or no matching rule is found for the request, 
    // then a 403 status code is returned, with the following status text:
    // "CORS not enabled or no matching rule found for this request."
    if rest.responseStatusCode.intValue != 200 {
        // Examine the request/response to see what happened.
        print("response status code = \(rest.responseStatusCode.intValue)")
