AuthAzureSAS Delphi DLL Reference Documentation

AuthAzureSAS

Current Version: 10.1.2
Requires Chilkat Bundle License

Provides general functionality for Azure Shared Access Signature (SAS) Authorization.

This class is introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.65.

Create/Dispose

var
myObject: HCkAuthAzureSAS;

begin
myObject := CkAuthAzureSAS_Create();

// ...

CkAuthAzureSAS_Dispose(myObject);
end;
function CkAuthAzureSAS_Create: HCkAuthAzureSAS; stdcall;

Creates an instance of the HCkAuthAzureSAS object and returns a handle (i.e. a Pointer). The handle is passed in the 1st argument for the functions listed on this page.

procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_Dispose(handle: HCkAuthAzureSAS); stdcall;

Objects created by calling CkAuthAzureSAS_Create must be freed by calling this method. A memory leak occurs if a handle is not disposed by calling this function.

Properties

AccessKey
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getAccessKey(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_putAccessKey(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; newPropVal: PWideChar); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__accessKey(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;
Introduced in version 9.5.0.65

This is the signing key (access key) that must be kept private. It is a base64 string such as "abdTvCZFFoWUyre6erlNN+IOb9qhXgDsyhrxmZvpmxqFDwpl9oD0X9Fy0hIQa6L5UohznRLmkCtUYySO4Y2eaw=="

DebugLogFilePath
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getDebugLogFilePath(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_putDebugLogFilePath(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; newPropVal: PWideChar); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__debugLogFilePath(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;

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.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

LastErrorHtml
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getLastErrorHtml(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__lastErrorHtml(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;

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.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

LastErrorText
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getLastErrorText(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__lastErrorText(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;

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.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

LastErrorXml
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getLastErrorXml(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__lastErrorXml(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;

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.

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.

LastMethodSuccess
function CkAuthAzureSAS_getLastMethodSuccess(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): wordbool; stdcall;
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_putLastMethodSuccess(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; newPropVal: wordbool); stdcall;

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.

StringToSign
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getStringToSign(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_putStringToSign(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; newPropVal: PWideChar); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__stringToSign(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;
Introduced in version 9.5.0.65

Defines the format of the string to sign.

The format is specified as a comma-separated list of names. For example:

signedpermissions,signedstart,signedexpiry,canonicalizedresource,signedidentifier,signedIP,signedProtocol,signedversion,rscc,rscd,rsce,rscl,rsct
This will result in an actual string-to-sign that is composed of the values for each name separated by newline (LF) chars. For example: 
signedpermissions + "\n" +  
signedstart + "\n" +  
signedexpiry + "\n" +  
canonicalizedresource + "\n" +  
signedidentifier + "\n" +  
signedIP + "\n" +  
signedProtocol + "\n" +  
signedversion + "\n" +  
rscc + "\n" +  
rscd + "\n" +  
rsce + "\n" +  
rscl + "\n" +  
rsct

VerboseLogging
function CkAuthAzureSAS_getVerboseLogging(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): wordbool; stdcall;
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_putVerboseLogging(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; newPropVal: wordbool); stdcall;

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
procedure CkAuthAzureSAS_getVersion(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS; outPropVal: HCkString); stdcall;
function CkAuthAzureSAS__version(objHandle: HCkAuthAzureSAS): PWideChar; stdcall;

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

See the notes about PWideChar memory ownership and validity.
