Detailed DescriptionThe QWebSecurityOrigin class defines a security boundary for web sites. QWebSecurityOrigin provides access to the security domains defined by web sites. An origin consists of a host name, a scheme, and a port number. Web sites with the same security origin can access each other's resources for client-side scripting or databases. For example the site http://www.example.com/my/page.html is allowed to share the same database as http://www.example.com/my/overview.html, or access each other's documents when used in HTML frame sets and JavaScript. At the same time it prevents http://www.malicious.com/evil.html from accessing http://www.example.com/'s resources, because they are of a different security origin. By default local schemes like file:// and qrc:// are concidered to be in the same security origin, and can access each other's resources. You can add additional local schemes by using QWebSecurityOrigin::addLocalScheme(), or override the default same-origin behavior by setting QWebSettings::LocalContentCanAccessFileUrls to false. Note: Local resources are by default restricted from accessing remote content, which means your file:// will not be able to access http://domain.com/foo.html. You can relax this restriction by setting QWebSettings::LocalContentCanAccessRemoteUrls to true. Call QWebFrame::securityOrigin() to get the QWebSecurityOrigin for a frame in a web page, and use host(), scheme() and port() to identify the security origin. Use databases() to access the databases defined within a security origin. The disk usage of the origin's databases can be limited with setDatabaseQuota(). databaseQuota() and databaseUsage() report the current limit as well as the current usage.
