Also, in order to work "nicely" with Mail, you will need to add Mail to the ACL for the keychain entry. From what I am seeing, none of this is very difficult; you should probably start with Apple's keychain introduction:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Security/Conceptual/ keychainServConcepts/index.html
If you have any familiarity with C programming (it doesn't take much), and if you have the Xcode tools installed, and the Rev externals SDK (which is a free DL from Rev's site), it should be a fairly simple matter to set this up -- as long as the security issue I listed below can be overcome.

Hmmmm - - - so you're working on a Rev external that controls keychains? I
might be interested in that. I need to be able to add an email account to
AppleMail without actually launching AppleMail. From what I can tell, the only
safe way to do this is via keychains, due to the encryption when storing the
password to a new account. Any idea if your external could be used for such
a thing?

Okay, now I am experimenting with accessing the Mac OS X Keychain from
an External in Rev. It seems to be working fine, except for one slight
problem:
My standalone and the stack running under Rev are recognized by the Keychain Services as being the same app!
If I understand this correctly, this means that *ANY* Rev stack (at
least, any Rev stack built with that version of Rev) will be able to
access the same keychain data that my stack would on the same machine.
Needless to say this is quite insecure. I suspect it might have
something to do with the fact that the Rev engine is used in both cases
as the basic "application" part of the program.
Does anyone have any experience with this, or know how to work around this problem? It might take an enhancement request to get this fixed, not sure...
Thank you!
