It + contains code only for browser. + + Important to know about memory allocation: + + Routines in this module use dynamic allocation, but free automatically all the memory + reserved by them. + + Therefore the caller never has to (and never should) free() any object returned by + these functions. + + Therefore also all the strings returned by this package are only valid until the next + call to the same function is made. This approach is selected, because of the nature of + access authorization: no string returned by the package needs to be valid longer than + until the next call. + + This also makes it easy to plug the AA package in: you don't have to ponder whether to + free()something here or is it done somewhere else (because it is always done somewhere + else). + + The strings that the package needs to store are copied so the original strings given as + parameters to AA functions may be freed or modified with no side effects. + + Also note:The AA package does not free() anything else than what it has itself + allocated. + + */ + +#ifndef HTAABROW_H +#define HTAABROW_H + +#include <HTAAUtil.h> /* Common parts of AA */ + +#ifdef __cplusplus +extern "C" { +#endif +/* + Routines for Browser Side Recording of AA Info + + Most of the browser-side AA is done by the following two functions (which are called + from file HTTP.c so the browsers using libwww only need to be linked with the new + library and not be changed at all): + + HTAA_composeAuth() composes the Authorization: line contents, if the AA package + thinks that the given document is protected.
