34 * @short A safe password input widget.

121 * @short A password input dialog.
123 * This dialog asks the user to enter a password. The functions you're
124 * probably interested in are the static methods, getPassword() and
127 * <b>Usage example</b>\n
131 * int result = K3PasswordDialog::getPassword(parent, password, i18n("Prompt message"));
132 * if (result == K3PasswordDialog::Accepted)
136 * \image html k3passworddialog.png "KDE Password Dialog"
138 * <b>Security notes:</b>\n
140 * Keeping passwords in memory can be a potential security hole. You should
141 * handle this situation with care.
143 * @li You may want to use disableCoreDump() to disable core dumps.
144 * Core dumps are dangerous because they are an image of the process memory,
145 * and thus include any passwords that were in memory.
147 * @li You should delete passwords as soon as they are not needed anymore.
148 * The functions getPassword() and getNewPassword() return the
149 * password as a QCString. I believe this is safer than a QString. A QString
150 * stores its characters internally as 16-bit wide values, so conversions are
151 * needed, both for creating the QString and by using it. The temporary
152 * memory used for these conversion is probably not erased. This could lead
153 * to stray passwords in memory, even if you think you erased all of them.

176 * a second time. This is usually used when the user
177 * changes his password.
183 * Constructs a password dialog.
185 * @param type: if NewPassword is given here, the dialog contains two
186 * input fields, so that the user must confirm his password
187 * and possible typos are detected immediately.
188 * @param enableKeep: if true, a check box is shown in the dialog
189 * which allows the user to keep his password input for later.
190 * @param extraBttn: allows to show additional buttons, KDialog.
