(VB.NET UWP/WinRT) Upload File in Blocks (with Content-MD5 header) and Commit the Block List

Demonstrates how to upload a file in blocks and then commit the block list. This example includes a Content-MD5 header for each block.

' 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.

Dim rest As New Chilkat.Rest

' Connect to the Azure Storage Blob Service
Dim bTls As Boolean = True
Dim port As Integer = 443
Dim bAutoReconnect As Boolean = True
' In this example, the storage account name is "chilkat".
Dim success As Boolean = Await rest.ConnectAsync("chilkat.blob.core.windows.net",port,bTls,bAutoReconnect)
If (success <> True) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(rest.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
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: Content-Length, x-ms-date, Authorization.  These headers
' are automatically set by Chilkat.


' As the blocks are uploaded, we'll keep an XML block list for the subsequent commit..
Dim xml As New Chilkat.Xml
xml.Tag = "BlockList"

' Any type of file can be uploaded in this way.  It can a text file, binary file, anything...
' This example will upload an XML file that is approximately 275K in size.  It can be downloaded
' at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/hamlet.xml
Dim fac As New Chilkat.FileAccess
success = fac.OpenForRead("qa_data/xml/hamlet.xml")
' Assuming success for the example..

' We'll upload in 16K blocks (normally a program would upload in larger block sizes than this,
' but this is just an example...)
Dim blockSize As Integer = 16384

' How many 16K blocks?  (Including 1 for the last partial block)
Dim numBlocks As Integer = fac.GetNumBlocks(blockSize)

    ' Generate a base64 block ID.  
    ' (Chilkat provides a helper method named GenBlockId to make this easy)
