没有API的Azure Blob共享访问签名

Question

I'm trying to create a REST call to Azure to List Blobs within a container. The container is private so I need to access it through a Shared Access Signature (SAS).

I make that call in a Silverlight application so I cannot use the Client API.

I find a lot of examples with ClientAPI but nothing really clear and obvious for REST.

Anyone has a nice... clean and simple example on how to do that?

Thanks

I wrote a blog post a few days ago about exactly the same: http://gauravmantri.com/2013/02/13/revisiting-windows-azure-shared-access-signature/ . I've included samples for various common functions both using REST API and Client library. As far as listing blobs is concerned, if you use REST API you get raw XML back which you would need to parse in your SL app.
