REST Read Binary Response into BinData Object (Amazon S3)

Demonstrates how to make a REST call that returns a binary response body. This example is valid for files that fit in memory. The example shows how to download a JPG from the Amazon S3 service. Objective-C

#import <CkoRest.h>
#import <CkoAuthAws.h>
#import <NSString.h>
#import <CkoBinData.h>

BOOL success = NO;

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

//  Important: For buckets created in regions outside us-east-1,
//  there are three important changes that need to be made.
//  See Working with S3 Buckets in Non-us-east-1 Regions for the details.
