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

# On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain

# Set wildcarded or exact values for appName, service, domain, and username.
# Omit any members where anything is allowed to match, or alternatively specify "*" to match anything.

# Sample output on Windows.
# The "targetName" is purely informational and indicates the raw TargetName of the secret (i.e. Credential) stored in the Credentials Manager.
