We have performed continuum-discretized coupled channels (CDCC) calculations of the breakup of B8 on Ni58 and direct proton transfer for the B8+Ni58 system at laboratory energies of 20-28.4 MeV. The influence of the Be7 core-target optical potential (OP) on the breakup cross section was investigated. Elastic scattering angular distributions for the Be7+Ni58 and B8+Ni58 systems at five different energies around the Coulomb barrier were studied, and a reasonable energy-independent OP for each system was obtained. Using these OPs and two different Be7-p relative motion wave functions, and summing breakup and direct proton transfer contributions, we were able to fit the experimental cross section at a B8 laboratory energy of 25.75 MeV. We calculated the excitation function for the Be7 emission in the B8+Ni58 reaction, where Be7 products were measured at the forward angle θlab=45° in the energy interval Elab=20-28.4 MeV. In view of the peripheral character of the B8 breakup reaction at near-barrier energies, we could extract the asymptotic normalization coefficient for the Be7-p system, which was found to be CBe-p,p3/22=0.543±0.027 fm-1. Finally, the astrophysical S17(0) factor was found to be S17(0)=20.8±1.1 eV b.
