Android PermissionRequest Sample
===================================

This sample demonstrates how to use the PermissionRequest API to
securely provide access to restricted system features (such as a
camera or microphone) from within a WebView. In this example, a dialog
is created to allow users to explicitly approve or reject each
request.

Introduction
------------

PermissionRequest can be used by setting up a custom WebChromeClient.

```java
mWebView.setWebChromeClient(mWebChromeClient);
```

In you WebChromeClient implementation, you need to override
[onPermissionRequest][1]. This method is called when the web content
is requesting permission to access some resources, providing an
opportunity to approve or reject the request. In this implementation,
we display a dialog to allow the user to approve or reject any
request. In other applications, you may want to implement a whitelist
of allowed APIs.  Also, override [onPermissionRequestCanceled][2] for
handling cancellation of the PermissionRequest by the web content.

When the user confirms or denies the request, you can respond back to
the web content by [grant][3] or [deny][4] respectively.

```java
mPermissionRequest.grant(mPermissionRequest.getResources());
```

This sample provides the web content from the assets folder in the
app. Since WebView is not allowed to use getUserMedia from a "file://"
URL, the app uses the SimpleWebServer class to provide the content via
"http://localhost".
