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

//  The bootstrap secret will contain the following information:

//  AWS Region
//  AWS Access Key
//  AWS Secret Key

//  See following examples for setting up a bootstrap secret in memory, 
//  or in the local manager (Windows Credentials Manager or Apple Keychain)
//  Setup Bootstrap Secret in Local Manager
//  Setup Bootstrap Secret in Memory
oBootstrap := CreateObject("Chilkat.Secrets")

//  Set the location of the bootstrap secret.
//  Can be "local_manager" or "memory", depending on how you setup the bootstrap secret.
//  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  If your operating system is NOT Windows or MacOS/iOS, then change "local_manager" to "memory"
//  You can also, if desired, use "memory" on Windows and MacOS/iOS if your bootstrap secret was previously setup in memory.
//  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
oBootstrap:Location := "local_manager"

//  Specify the bootstrap secret to be used.
