WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest

A permission request for sharing the user's location.

WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest represents a request for permission to decide whether WebKit should provide the user's location to a website when requested through the Geolocation API.

When a WebKitGeolocationPermissionRequest is not handled by the user, it is denied by default.

When embedding web views in your application, you *must* configure an application identifier to allow web content to use geolocation services. The identifier *must* match the name of the .desktop file which describes the application, sans the suffix.

If your application uses #GApplication (or any subclass like #GtkApplication), WebKit will automatically use the identifier returned by gio.application.Application.getApplicationId. This is the recommended approach for enabling geolocation in applications.

If an identifier cannot be obtained through #GApplication, the value returned by glib.global.getPrgname will be used instead as a fallback. For programs which cannot use #GApplication, calling glib.global.setPrgname early during initialization is needed when the name of the executable on disk does not match the name of a valid .desktop file.
