Method

GioTlsInteractionask_password

since: 2.30

Declaration [src]

GTlsInteractionResult
g_tls_interaction_ask_password (
  GTlsInteraction* interaction,
  GTlsPassword* password,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Run synchronous interaction to ask the user for a password. In general, g_tls_interaction_invoke_ask_password() should be used instead of this function.

Derived subclasses usually implement a password prompt, although they may also choose to provide a password from elsewhere. The password value will be filled in and then callback will be called. Alternatively the user may abort this password request, which will usually abort the TLS connection.

If the interaction is cancelled by the cancellation object, or by the user then G_TLS_INTERACTION_FAILED will be returned with an error that contains a G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED error code. Certain implementations may not support immediate cancellation.

Available since: 2.30

Parameters

password

Type: GTlsPassword

A GTlsPassword object.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.

cancellable

Type: GCancellable

An optional GCancellable cancellation object.

The argument can be NULL.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.

error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.

If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.

The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.

In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: GTlsInteractionResult

The status of the ask password interaction.
