Readonly flags@} Flags describing this dialog. A bitwise OR of the flag values above.
It is possible that neither #AUTH_HOST nor #AUTH_PROXY are set.
Auth prompts should ignore flags they don't understand; especially, they should not throw an exception because of an unsupported flag.
The initial value should be used to prefill the dialog or be shown in some other way to the user. The password should not be shown in clear. On return, this parameter should contain the password entered by the user.

Optional aInstancePtr: objectA run time mechanism for interface discovery.
NS_OK if the interface is supported by the associated instance, NS_NOINTERFACE if it is not.
aInstancePtr must not be null.

A object that hold authentication information. The caller of nsIAuthPrompt2::promptUsernameAndPassword or nsIAuthPrompt2::promptPasswordAsync provides an object implementing this interface; the prompt implementation can then read the values here to prefill the dialog. After the user entered the authentication information, it should set the attributes of this object to indicate to the caller what was entered by the user.
