Properties

AccessKey
Function ComAccessKey Returns String
Procedure Set ComAccessKey String value
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

A valid base64 access key for the Azure storage account.

More Information and Examples
top
Account
Function ComAccount Returns String
Procedure Set ComAccount String value
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

The Azure storage account name. (A storage account can contain zero or more containers. A container contains properties, metadata, and zero or more blobs. A blob is any single entity comprised of binary data, properties, and metadata. )

top
DebugLogFilePath
Function ComDebugLogFilePath Returns String
Procedure Set ComDebugLogFilePath String value

If set to a file path, this property logs the LastErrorText of each Chilkat method or property call to the specified file. This logging helps identify the context and history of Chilkat calls leading up to any crash or hang, aiding in debugging.

Enabling the VerboseLogging property provides more detailed information. This property is mainly used for debugging rare instances where a Chilkat method call causes a hang or crash, which should generally not happen.

Possible causes of hangs include:

  • A timeout property set to 0, indicating an infinite timeout.
  • A hang occurring within an event callback in the application code.
  • An internal bug in the Chilkat code causing the hang.

LastBinaryResult
Function ComLastBinaryResult Returns Variant

This property is mainly used in SQL Server stored procedures to retrieve binary data from the last method call that returned binary data. It is only accessible if Chilkat.Global.KeepBinaryResult is set to True. This feature allows for the retrieval of large varbinary results in an SQL Server environment, which has restrictions on returning large data via method calls, though temp tables can handle binary properties.

top
LastErrorHtml
Function ComLastErrorHtml Returns String

Provides HTML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorText
Function ComLastErrorText Returns String

Provides plain text information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastErrorXml
Function ComLastErrorXml Returns String

Provides XML-formatted information about the last called method or property. If a method call fails or behaves unexpectedly, check this property for details. Note that information is available regardless of the method call's success.

top
LastMethodSuccess
Function ComLastMethodSuccess Returns Boolean
Procedure Set ComLastMethodSuccess Boolean value

Indicates the success or failure of the most recent method call: True means success, False means failure. This property remains unchanged by property setters or getters. This method is present to address challenges in checking for null or Nothing returns in certain programming languages.

top
LastStringResult
Function ComLastStringResult Returns String

In SQL Server stored procedures, this property holds the string return value of the most recent method call that returns a string. It is accessible only when Chilkat.Global.KeepStringResult is set to TRUE. SQL Server has limitations on string lengths returned from methods and properties, but temp tables can be used to access large strings.

top
LastStringResultLen
Function ComLastStringResultLen Returns Integer

The length, in characters, of the string contained in the LastStringResult property.

top
Scheme
Function ComScheme Returns String
Procedure Set ComScheme String value
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

Can be "SharedKey" or "SharedKeyLite". The default value is "SharedKey".

top
Service
Function ComService Returns String
Procedure Set ComService String value
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

Can be "Blob", "Queue", "File", or "Table". The default is "Blob".

Note: Authentication for the "Table" service did not work in versions prior to v9.5.0.83.

top
VerboseLogging
Function ComVerboseLogging Returns Boolean
Procedure Set ComVerboseLogging Boolean value

If set to True, then the contents of LastErrorText (or LastErrorXml, or LastErrorHtml) may contain more verbose information. The default value is False. Verbose logging should only be used for debugging. The potentially large quantity of logged information may adversely affect peformance.

top
Version
Function ComVersion Returns String

Version of the component/library, such as "10.1.0"

More Information and Examples
top
XMsVersion
Function ComXMsVersion Returns String
Procedure Set ComXMsVersion String value
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

If set, automatically adds the "x-ms-version" HTTP request header to Azure Storage requests. The default value is "2014-02-14".
