/*
 To use the service from an application or other process, use NSXPCConnection to establish a connection to the service by doing something like this:

     _connectionToService = [[NSXPCConnection alloc] initWithServiceName:LCCertificateChainServiceName];
     _connectionToService.remoteObjectInterface = [NSXPCInterface interfaceWithProtocol:@protocol(LCCertificateChainProtocol)];
     [_connectionToService resume];

Once you have a connection to the service, you can use it like this:

     [[_connectionToService remoteObjectProxy] certificateChainFor:mySingleCertAsPEM withReply:^(NSData* inAggregatePEM, NSError* inError) {
         // We have received a response. Import the chain of certicates.
         NSLog(@"Result was: %@", pemChain);
     }];

 And, when you are finished with the service, clean up the connection like this:

     [_connectionToService invalidate];
