Ever wanted to help your user out by allowing them to securely store passwords they use in your application? OS X has such a facility built in. It's called Keychain Services. BaH.Keychain adds support for this API, enabling you to both retrieve and store passwords easily. The module is currently available from my maxmods SVN at googlecode. It comes with a basic example and documentation. Feedback, comments and critique welcome as always :o)

Awesome Brucey! I will very likely be using this soon. Another great addition. Really, where would we be without you?

I am getting an error with this mod: Building example_01 Compiling:example_01.bmx Linking:example_01 Undefined symbols: "_bbStringFromNSString", referenced from: _bmx_keychain_SecCopyErrorMessageString in keychain.release.macos.x86.a(glue.m.release.macos.x86.o) ld: symbol(s) not found collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Build Error: Failed to link /Users/A/Development/BlitzMax/mod/bah.mod/keychain.mod/examples/example_01.app/Contents/MacOS/example_01 Process complete There was nothing unusual to note during the module building stage. May I pretty please have some help with this? I am using a MacBook Pro with Leopard and latest xcode.

You also need the latest BlitzMax (1.38), which adds the function bbStringFromNSString() in Pub.MacOS.
