//                                                                      //
// A TS3WebFile is a TWebFile which retrieves the file contents from a  //
// web server implementing the REST API of the Amazon S3 protocol. This //
// class is meant to be as generic as possible to be used with files    //
// hosted not only by Amazon S3 servers but also by other providers     //
// implementing the core of the S3 protocol.                            //
//                                                                      //
// The S3 protocol works on top of HTTPS (and HTTP) and imposes that    //
// each HTTP request be signed using a specific convention: the request //
// must include an 'Authorization' header which contains the signature  //
// of a concatenation of selected request fields. For signing the       //
// request, an 'Access Key Id' and a 'Secret Access Key' need to be     //
// known. These keys are used by the S3 servers to identify the client  //
// and to authenticate the request as genuine.                          //
//                                                                      //
// As an end user, you must know the Access Key and Secret Access Key   //
// in order to access each S3 file. They are provided to you by your S3 //
// service provider. Those two keys can be provided to ROOT when        //
// initializing an object of this class by two means:                   //
// a) by using the environmental variables S3_ACCESS_KEY and            //
//    S3_SECRET_KEY, or                                                 //
// b) by specifying them as an argument when opening each file.         //
//                                                                      //
// The first method is convenient if all the S3 files you want to       //
// access are hosted by a single provider. The second one is more       //
// flexible as it allows you to specify which credentials to use        //
// on a per-file basis. See the documentation of the constructor of     //
// this class for details on the syntax.                                //
//                                                                      //
// For generating and signing the HTTP request, this class uses         //
// TS3HTTPRequest.                                                      //
//                                                                      //
