This interface should be implemented by objects which handle interaction with the user during authentication.
This is a wrapper around the struct pam_conv PAM conversation interface, and is used by auth when interacting with the user during authentication.
A simple implementation is provided in the form of auth_conv_tty. However, more complex implementations might hook into the event loop of a GUI widget system, for example.
The interface allows the setting of optional warning timeout and fatal timeout values, which should default to 0 (not enabled). This is an absolute time after which a warning is displayed or the conversation ends with an error.
typedef std::vector<auth_message> sbuild::auth_conv::message_list |
A list of messages.
auth_conv::auth_conv | ( | ) |
The constructor.
auth_conv::~auth_conv | ( | ) | [virtual] |
The destructor.
virtual void sbuild::auth_conv::conversation | ( | message_list & | messages | ) | [pure virtual] |
Hold a conversation with the user.
Each of the messages detailed in messages should be displayed to the user, asking for input where required. The type of message is indicated in the auth_message::type field of the auth_message. The auth_message::response field of the auth_message should be filled in if input is required.
On error, an exception will be thrown.
messages | the messages to display to the user, and responses to return to the caller. |

virtual time_t sbuild::auth_conv::get_fatal_timeout | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Get the time at which the conversation will be terminated with an error.
Implemented in sbuild::auth_conv_tty.
virtual time_t sbuild::auth_conv::get_warning_timeout | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
