Constants
Predefined return values for the testPermission method and for the permission param of the add method NOTE: UNKNOWN_ACTION (0) is reserved to represent the default permission when no entry is found for a host, and should not be used by consumers to indicate otherwise.
Attributes
Allows enumeration of all stored permissions
@return an nsISimpleEnumerator interface that allows access to
nsIPermission objects
Methods
Add permission information for a given URI and permission type. This
operation will cause the type string to be registered if it does not
currently exist. If a permission already exists for a given type, it
will be modified.
@param uri the uri to add the permission for
@param type a case-sensitive ASCII string, identifying the consumer.
Consumers should choose this string to be unique, with
respect to other consumers.
@param permission an integer representing the desired action (e.g. allow
or deny). The interpretation of this number is up to the
consumer, and may represent different actions for different
types. Consumers may use one of the enumerated permission
actions defined above, for convenience.
NOTE: UNKNOWN_ACTION (0) is reserved to represent the
default permission when no entry is found for a host, and
should not be used by consumers to indicate otherwise.
Remove permission information for a given host string and permission type.
The host string represents the exact entry in the permission list (such as
obtained from the enumerator), not a URI which that permission might apply
to.
@param host the host to remove the permission for
@param type a case-sensitive ASCII string, identifying the consumer.
The type must have been previously registered using the
add() method.
Test whether a website has permission to perform the given action.
This requires an exact hostname match, subdomains are not a match.
@param uri the uri to be tested
@param type a case-sensitive ASCII string, identifying the consumer
@param return see add(), param permission. returns UNKNOWN_ACTION when
there is no stored permission for this uri and / or type.
Test whether a website has permission to perform the given action.
@param uri the uri to be tested
@param type a case-sensitive ASCII string, identifying the consumer
@param return see add(), param permission. returns UNKNOWN_ACTION when
there is no stored permission for this uri and / or type.
