How to see that Proxy Auth Credentials failed?

[chowey]

I am setting my proxy authentication credentials by overriding CefRequestHandler::GetAuthCredentials. The code looks something like this:

Code: Select all

bool SimpleHandler::GetAuthCredentials(CefRefPtr<CefBrowser> browser, CefRefPtr<CefFrame> frame, bool isProxy,
   const CefString& host, int port, const CefString& realm, const CefString& scheme, CefRefPtr<CefAuthCallback> callback)
{
   if (isProxy) {
      callback->Continue(proxyUsername, proxyPassword);
      return true;
   }
   return false;
}


This works fine when my credentials are correct. When they are wrong, there seems to be no way to tell that the authentication failed. Instead, GetAuthCredentials gets called over and over again.

How can I tell that the authentication failed?

Is GetAuthCredentials called multiple times if it didn't fail? If not, that seems like a pretty good indicator.

Apparently not. Thanks.
