Introduction</h1>
<p>This library, libsignon-qt, is the Single Sign On client library for Qt-based applications. By using this library, an application can authenticate to a (usually remote) service using an existing set of credentials, and operate on the credentials database as well.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="terminology"></a>
Terminology</h1>
<p>A few terms are frequently used in this library APIs, which we'll briefly explain here:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<b>Identity</b>: This is a local object representing a record in the credentials DB. It contains information about the username and password (the latter is write-only), plus some metadata such as a descriptive caption, ACL, reference count, and a little more. Identities are referred to in the SSO DB by numeric IDs. </li>
<li>
<b>Authentication method</b>: the SSO daemon supports different authentication methods, each being provided by a plugin. Well known examples of authentication methods include <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Authentication_and_Security_Layer">SASL</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oauth">OAuth</a>. Authentication methods might support different authentication mechanisms. </li>
<li>
<b>Authentication session</b>: the process of performing the authentication. </li>
</ul>

List of classes in libsignon-qt</h1>
<p>Here are the main classes in the libraries. You can also <a href="annotated.html">see the complete list of classes</a>. All classes reside in the <a class="el" href="namespaceSignOn.html">SignOn</a> namespace.</p>
<table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<td><a class="el" href="classSignOn_1_1AuthSession.html" title="Represents a session to authentication plugin/server. ">SignOn::AuthSession</a></td><td>Local representation of an authentication session. Use this class to perform the authenticaion. </td></tr>
<tr>
<td><a class="el" href="classSignOn_1_1Identity.html" title="Represents a database entry for a single identity. ">SignOn::Identity</a></td><td>Local representation of an identity. Use this class to load an existing set of credentials, or to create, edit, delete credentials. </td></tr>
