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

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Http")

' Insert your access key here:
http.AwsAccessKey = "AWS_ACCESS_KEY"

' Insert your secret key here:
http.AwsSecretKey = "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 (http.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) Then
    outFile.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)

    outFile.WriteLine(xml.LastErrorText)

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

    outFile.WriteLine(xml.GetXml())
    outFile.WriteLine("Failed.")
    WScript.Quit
