Description:

[ CCode ( type_id = "webkit_authentication_request_get_type ()" ) ]
public class AuthenticationRequest : Object

Represents an authentication request.

Whenever a client attempts to load a page protected by HTTP authentication, credentials will need to be provided to authorize access. To allow the client to decide how it wishes to handle authentication, WebKit will fire a authenticate signal with a WebKitAuthenticationRequest object to provide client side authentication support. Credentials are exposed through the Credential object.

In case the client application does not wish to handle this signal WebKit will provide a default handler. To handle authentication asynchronously, simply increase the reference count of the WebKitAuthenticationRequest object.
