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

    let secrets = CkoSecrets()!

    // On Windows, this is the Windows Credentials Manager
    // On MacOS/iOS, it is the Apple Keychain
    secrets.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.
    let json = CkoJsonObject()!
    json.update("appName", value: "Test2")
    json.update("service", value: "Custom")
    json.update("domain", value: "Ocean")
    json.update("username", value: "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:
    var url: String? = "https://chilkatdownload.com/sample_data/starfish20.jpg"
    let http = CkoHttp()!
    let bd = CkoBinData()!
    var success: Bool = http.downloadBd(url, binData: bd)
    if success == false {
        print("\(http.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    // Create or update the binary secret.
    success = secrets.updateSecretBd(json, secret: bd)
    if success == false {
        print("\(secrets.lastErrorText!)")
        return
    }

    print("Success.")
