Wondering if anyone’s put together a class for sending/getting files to S3?
Seems like something somebody would have put out there by now. I bought Michael’s HTTP1.1 kit. Just hoping for a good example to learn from for the rest of it.
Many thanks!

Temboo has extensive api for communicating with Amazon S3…

Matthew :-p If you need any help getting started with S3, I’d be glad to work on a few demos over the next couple of days for you.
The S3 protocol is a subset of the REST protocol. The protocol is web documented and they have sample code (not in Xojo) for you to look at.
Now when you write to S3 make sure it is S3 and not Glacier. S3 is their “fast” storage but isnt. Glacier is their “slow” and rarely read storage and it is extremely slow. Glacier is designed to replace tape. Write once (at a slow speed) and read really rarely.
