#include <QWebSecurityOrigin>
This class was introduced in Qt 4.5.
The 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.
### diagram
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.
QWebSecurity also provides access to all databases defined within a security origin.
For more information refer to the "Same origin policy" Wikipedia Article.

Returns the host name defining the security origin.
Returns the port number defining the security origin.
Returns the scheme defining the security origin.
Sets the quota for the databases in the security origin to quota bytes.
If the quota is set to a value less than the current usage, the quota will remain and no data will be purged to meet the new quota. However, no new data can be added to databases in this origin.
See also databaseQuota().
Assigns the other security origin to this.
