    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkSecrets secrets = new CkSecrets();

    // On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
    // On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
    secrets.put_Location("local_manager");

    // Specify the name of the secret.
    // service and username are required.
    // appName and domain are optional.
    // Note: The values are arbitrary and can be anything you want.
    CkJsonObject json = new CkJsonObject();
    json.UpdateString("appName","Test2");
    json.UpdateString("service","Custom");
    json.UpdateString("domain","Ocean");
    json.UpdateString("username","Starfish20");

    // The purpose of this example is to show how arbitrary binary data
    // can be stored as a secret.

    // We'll use a small JPG image that is approximately 2KB in size.
    // You can test using this same JPG at this URL:
    String url = "https://chilkatdownload.com/sample_data/starfish20.jpg";
    CkHttp http = new CkHttp();
    CkBinData bd = new CkBinData();
    success = http.DownloadBd(url,bd);
    if (success == false) {
        System.out.println(http.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    // Create or update the binary secret.
    success = secrets.UpdateSecretBd(json,bd);
    if (success == false) {
        System.out.println(secrets.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    System.out.println("Success.");
