Split File into Chunks

Demonstrates how to split a file into chunks. Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let fac = CkoFileAccess()!

    // Any type of file may be split.  It doesn't matter if it's
    // a binary file or a text file.
    var fileToSplit: String? = "qa_data/hamlet.xml"

    var partPrefix: String? = "hamlet"
    var partExtension: String? = "part"
    var maxChunkSize: Int = 50000
    var destDirPath: String? = "qa_output"

    // Splits hamlet.xml into hamlet1.part, hamlet2.part, ...
    // Output files are written to the current working directory.
    // Each chunk will be 50000 bytes except for the last which
    // will be the remainder.
    success = fac.splitFile(fileToSplit: fileToSplit, partPrefix: partPrefix, partExtension: partExtension, partSize: maxChunkSize, destDir: destDirPath)

    if success == true {
        print("Success.")
    }
    else {
        print("\(fac.lastErrorText!)")
    }
