interface nsILoginInfo : nsISupports
Attributes
The URL a form-based login was submitted to. For logins obtained from HTML forms, this field is the |action| attribute from the |form| element, with the path removed. For example "http://www.site.com". [Forms with no |action| attribute default to submitting to their origin URL, so we store that.] For logins obtained from a HTTP or FTP protocol authentication, this field is NULL.
attribute
AString
formSubmitURL
The hostname the login applies to. The hostname should be formatted as an URL. For example, "https://site.com", "http://site.com:1234", "ftp://ftp.site.com".
attribute
AString
hostname
The HTTP Realm a login was requested for. When an HTTP server sends a 401 result, the WWW-Authenticate header includes a realm to identify the "protection space." See RFC2617. If the response sent has a missing or blank realm, the hostname is used instead. For logins obtained from HTML forms, this field is NULL.
attribute
AString
httpRealm
The password for the login.
attribute
AString
password
The |name| attribute for the password input field. For logins obtained from a HTTP or FTP protocol authentication, this field is an empty string.
attribute
AString
passwordField
The username for the login.
attribute
AString
username
The |name| attribute for the username input field. For logins obtained from a HTTP or FTP protocol authentication, this field is an empty string.
attribute
AString
usernameField
Methods
Create an identical copy of the login, duplicating all of the login's nsILoginInfo and nsILoginMetaInfo properties. This allows code to be forwards-compatible, when additional properties are added to nsILoginMetaInfo (or nsILoginInfo) in the future.
nsILoginInfo
clone()
Test for strict equality with another nsILoginInfo object.
@param aLoginInfo
The other object to test.
boolean
equals(in nsILoginInfo aLoginInfo)
Initialize a newly created nsLoginInfo object. The arguments are the fields for the new object.
void
init(in AString aHostname, in AString aFormSubmitURL, in AString aHttpRealm, in AString aUsername, in AString aPassword, in AString aUsernameField, in AString aPasswordField)
Test for loose equivalency with another nsILoginInfo object. The
passwordField and usernameField values are ignored, and the password
values may be optionally ignored. If one login's formSubmitURL is an
empty string (but not null), it will be treated as a wildcard. [The
blank value indicates the login was stored before bug 360493 was fixed.]
@param aLoginInfo
The other object to test.
@param ignorePassword
If true, ignore the password when checking for match.
boolean
matches(in nsILoginInfo aLoginInfo, in boolean ignorePassword)
