const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

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

    const secrets = try chilkat.Secrets.init();
    defer secrets.deinit();

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

    // Specify the secret to be fetched.
