(Objective-C) Upload File in Blocks and Commit the Block List

See more Azure Cloud Storage Examples

Demonstrates how to upload a file in blocks and then commit the block list. For files larger than 64MB, this is the way to upload to Azure Storage. Azure limits the size of each block to a maximum of 4MB.

For more information, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/put-block-list?tabs=microsoft-entra-id

// Azure Blob Service Example: Upload a file in blocks, and then commit the block list.
// See also: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dd135726.aspx

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

CkoRest *rest = [[CkoRest alloc] init];

// Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
BOOL bTls = YES;
int port = 443;
BOOL bAutoReconnect = YES;
// In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".

// The account name used here should match the 1st part of the domain passed in the call to Connect (above).

// This causes the "x-ms-version: 2021-08-06" header to be automatically added.

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

// Any type of file can be uploaded in this way.  It can a text file, binary file, anything...
