AuthAzureStorage Unicode C Reference Documentation

AuthAzureStorage

Current Version: 10.1.2

Provides functionality for authenticating calls to Azure Storage Services.

Create/Dispose

HCkAuthAzureStorageW instance = CkAuthAzureStorageW_Create();
// ...
CkAuthAzureStorageW_Dispose(instance);
HCkAuthAzureStorageW CkAuthAzureStorageW_Create(void);

Creates an instance of the HCkAuthAzureStorageW object and returns a handle ("void *" pointer). The handle is passed in the 1st argument for the functions listed on this page.

void CkAuthAzureStorageW_Dispose(HCkAuthAzureStorageW handle);

Objects created by calling CkAuthAzureStorageW_Create must be freed by calling this method. A memory leak occurs if a handle is not disposed by calling this function. Also, any handle returned by a Chilkat "C" function must also be freed by the application by calling the appropriate Dispose method, such as CkAuthAzureStorageW_Dispose.

Properties

AccessKey
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getAccessKey(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putAccessKey(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_accessKey(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

A valid base64 access key for the Azure storage account.

Account
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getAccount(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putAccount(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_account(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
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. )

DebugLogFilePath
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getDebugLogFilePath(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putDebugLogFilePath(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_debugLogFilePath(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);

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.

LastErrorHtml
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getLastErrorHtml(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_lastErrorHtml(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);

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
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getLastErrorText(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_lastErrorText(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);

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
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getLastErrorXml(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_lastErrorXml(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);

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
BOOL CkAuthAzureStorageW_getLastMethodSuccess(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putLastMethodSuccess(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, BOOL newVal);

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
Scheme
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getScheme(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putScheme(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_scheme(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
Introduced in version 9.5.0.58

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

top
Service
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getService(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putService(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_service(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
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
BOOL CkAuthAzureStorageW_getVerboseLogging(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putVerboseLogging(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, BOOL newVal);

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
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getVersion(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_version(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);

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

XMsVersion
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_getXMsVersion(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, HCkString retval);
void CkAuthAzureStorageW_putXMsVersion(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle, const wchar_t *newVal);
const wchar_t *CkAuthAzureStorageW_xMsVersion(HCkAuthAzureStorageW cHandle);
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".
