How to Development

You can develop the application by a really little code.

How to code for event handler

public function awsHandler(event:AWSEvent):void{
    // E4X ( ECMAScript for XML ) object.
    var data:XML = XML(event.data);
    // wildcard namespace * and specify child element name. ex) requestId
    ta.text += data.*::requestId;
    ta.text += data;
}

Conclusion

To use this library, you have to contract to Amazon Web Services ( http://aws.amazon.com/ ) . And, use Access Key ID and Secret Access Key. Please prepare it beforehand.
