Updating macOS Keychain Passwords

The Keychain is a system-wide feature on macOS that securely stores account passwords for applications. Until Xojo 2025r1, updating the password for an existing KeychainItem—that is, for a given Service Name—required first removing the item from the Keychain and then recreating it from scratch. Not exactly the most efficient process. But with the introduction of the KeychainItem.UpdatePassword method in 2025r1, things have gotten much easier. Read on to see how you can take advantage of this new functionality.
