Invoke the interaction to ask the user for a password. It invokes this interaction in the main loop, specifically the GMainContext returned by g_main_context_get_thread_default() when the interaction is created. This is called by called by GTlsConnection or GTlsDatabase to ask the user for a password.

Derived subclasses usually implement a password prompt, although they may also choose to provide a password from elsewhere. The password value will be filled in and then callback will be called. Alternatively the user may abort this password request, which will usually abort the TLS connection.

The implementation can either be a synchronous (eg: modal dialog) or an asynchronous one (eg: modeless dialog). This function will take care of calling which ever one correctly.

If the interaction is cancelled by the cancellation object, or by the user then G_TLS_INTERACTION_FAILED will be returned with an error that contains a G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED error code. Certain implementations may not support immediate cancellation.

This is called by called by GTlsConnection when the peer requests a certificate during the handshake.

Derived subclasses usually implement a certificate selector, although they may also choose to provide a certificate from elsewhere. Alternatively the user may abort this certificate request, which may or may not abort the TLS connection.

};

The class for GTlsInteraction. Derived classes implement the various virtual interaction methods to handle TLS interactions.

Derived classes can choose to implement whichever interactions methods they'd like to support by overriding those virtual methods in their class initialization function. If a derived class implements an async method, it must also implement the corresponding finish method.

The synchronous interaction methods should implement to display modal dialogs, and the asynchronous methods to display modeless dialogs.

If the user cancels an interaction, then the result should be G_TLS_INTERACTION_FAILED and the error should be set with a domain of G_IO_ERROR and code of G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED.
