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

oSecrets := CreateObject("Chilkat.Secrets")

//  On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
//  On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
oSecrets: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.

//  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:
