    • Optional aInstancePtr: object

  • A run time mechanism for interface discovery.

    Returns

    NS_OK if the interface is supported by the associated instance, NS_NOINTERFACE if it is not.

    aInstancePtr must not be null.

    Parameters

    Returns

    The resulting reference count.

    Returns number

  • Initialize the prompter. Must be called before using other interfaces.

    Parameters

    • aWindow: nsIDOMWindow

      The window in which the user is doing some login-related action that's resulting in a need to prompt them for something. The prompt will be associated with this window (or, if a notification bar is being used, topmost opener in some cases).

      aWindow can be null if there is no associated window, e.g. in a JSM or Sandbox. In this case there will be no checkbox to save the login since the window is needed to know if this is a private context.

      If this window is a content window, the corresponding window and browser elements will be calculated. If this window is a chrome window, the corresponding browser element needs to be set using setBrowser.

    Returns void
