Amazon S3 ThreeSharp "Key Not Found" blank characters in key

I know it's been a long time between drinks.

But I've finally found the time to post about my latest discoveries from the land of the Bleeding Edge. I'm currently rebuilding my PC with Windows 7 Release Candidate, more on that later and have some free time.

So as you would know if you have read the rest of my blog I have settled for a hosting solution of this.

Go Grid – App & DB Servers
EC2 - Transcoding, File Processing Services
S3 - Media Storage
CloudFront – CDN

As we near the release date for our product we have been doing substantial testing in the area of uploading from the Client directly to S3 using Flash and then performing Transcoding in EC2.

Anyone who's tried to play with the S3 API knows that it is a beast to say the least, so I choose to use the very good wrapper from Affirma called ThreeSharp.

If you're doing development in .NET with S3 then you would be mad not to use it.

However I have come across one minor problem and I'm not sure if it is with ThreeSharp or is a problem with S3.

If you're key name has a space in the name then you will run into problems when trying to Download the file. e.g. FOLDER/THIS IS THE NAME.mov results in a Key not found exception.

Obviously it is an easy fix but should be documented somewhere by Amazon as I'm sure it's not totally uncommon to have spaces in your File/Object name. Anyway just thought I would share.

CPF Contribution Rates for new Singapore Permanent Residents (SPR’s)

By Will Beattie
Recently my wife and I applied and got approved for Singapore Permanent Residency. After completing the formalities the most significant immediate change is the contribution to CPF which is Singapore’s mandatory social security savings scheme requiring contributions from employers and employees. CPF contributions start from the date you obtain SPR status, which is the date of the entry permit.   Being a relentless budgeter I needed to know exactly how much I and my employer would have to contribute so that I could adjust my budget accordingly as the employee contributions get deducted from the monthly salary. After doing some research I discovered that there is a “graduated” approach to CPF contributions for new SPR’s where the contributions gradually increase in the first and second year and then upon reaching the third year are at the full amount. Note: There is an option for employers to contribute the full amount for year 1 and year 2 and the employee can use the graduated rate, b…

Populating Duplicate Fields with DocuSign's REST API

By Will Beattie
If you're using DocuSign's REST API for integrating e-Signing into your application then it's possible you'll come up against the issue of duplicate fields not populating. This is when you have the same field with the same label e.g. Company Name in multiple places on the Document but you only want to send a single label, value instance to the API and have it populate in all places where the field is.

When you pass the label and value like so:

{ label: "company_name", value: "Blogger.com" }
If you have the field company_name more than once in the document then only the first field will be populated.

After a lot of digging into the DocuSign documentation I discovered the solution is to append "\\*" to the label name:

{ label: "\\*company_name", value: "Blogger.com" }
Why this isn't the default behaviour is beyond me but the solution works as expected.
