// Azure Blob Service Example: Delete a particular blob in a specified container.
// See also: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/delete-blob

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

Dim rest As New Chilkat.Rest

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
Dim bTls As Boolean
bTls = True
Dim port As Int32
port = 443
Dim bAutoReconnect As Boolean
bAutoReconnect = True
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
Dim success As Boolean
success = rest.Connect("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
If (success <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(rest.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Provide Azure Cloud credentials for the REST call.
Dim azAuth As New Chilkat.AuthAzureStorage
azAuth.AccessKey = "AZURE_ACCESS_KEY"
// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).
azAuth.Account = "chilkat"
azAuth.Scheme = "SharedKey"
azAuth.Service = "Blob"
// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2020-08-04" header to be automatically added.
azAuth.XMsVersion = "2020-08-04"
success = rest.SetAuthAzureStorage(azAuth)

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

// A successful operation returns status code 202 (Accepted) with no response body.
// This example deletes the blob named "helloWorld.txt" located in "mycontainer"
Dim responseStr As String
responseStr = rest.FullRequestNoBody("DELETE","/mycontainer/helloWorld.txt")
If (rest.LastMethodSuccess <> True) Then
    System.DebugLog(rest.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

If (rest.ResponseStatusCode <> 202) Then
    // Examine the request/response to see what happened.
    System.DebugLog("response status code = " + Str(rest.ResponseStatusCode))
    System.DebugLog("response status text = " + rest.ResponseStatusText)
    System.DebugLog("response header: " + rest.ResponseHeader)
    System.DebugLog("response body (if any): " + responseStr)
