//  Specify the format of the string to sign.
//  Each comma character in the following string represents a LF ("\n") character.
//  The names specified in the StringToSign are replaced with the values specified
//  in the subsequent calls to SetTokenParam and SetNonTokenParam,.

//  Note: The trailing comma in the StringToSign is intentional and important. This indicates that the 
//  string to sign will end with a "\n".

//  Also note: The names in the StringToSign are case sensitive.  The names
//  specified in the 1st argument in the calls to SetNonTokenParam and SetTokenParam should
//  match a name listed in StringToSign. 

//  Version 2018-11-09 and later
//  
//  Version 2018-11-09 adds support for the signed resource and signed blob snapshot time fields. 
//  These must be included in the string-to-sign. To construct the string-to-sign for Blob service resources, use the following format:
//  
//  StringToSign = signedpermissions + "\n" +  
//                 signedstart + "\n" +  
//                 signedexpiry + "\n" +  
//                 canonicalizedresource + "\n" +  
//                 signedidentifier + "\n" +  
//                 signedIP + "\n" +  
//                 signedProtocol + "\n" +  
//                 signedversion + "\n" +  
//                 signedResource + "\n"
//                 signedSnapshotTime + "\n" +
//                 rscc + "\n" +  
//                 rscd + "\n" +  
//                 rsce + "\n" +  
//                 rscl + "\n" +  
//                 rsct  
//

//  The canonicalizedresouce portion of the string is a canonical path to the signed resource. It must include the service name (blob, table, queue or file) for version
//  2021-08-06 or later, the storage account name, and the resource name, and must be URL-decoded. Names of blobs must include the blob�s container. Table names must be
//  lower-case. The following examples show how to construct the canonicalizedresource portion of the string, depending on the type of resource.
//  For example:
//  URL = https://chilkat.blob.core.windows.net/mycontainer/starfish.jpg
//  canonicalizedresource = "/blob/chilkat/mycontainer/starfish.jpg"  
//  IMPORTANT: See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/storageservices/create-service-sas for all details..

//  Indicate that we are creating a service SAS that is limited to the blob resource.
//  (Specify b if the shared resource is a blob. This grants access to the content and metadata of the blob.
//   Specify c if the shared resource is a container. This grants access to the content and metadata of any blob in the container, and to the list of blobs in the container. )
