|
To automatically grant access to the Webcam in your application project without prompting the user, you need to modify the `OnPermissionRequested` event in your HEScript UserMain script. Follow these steps:
1. Locate the `OnPermissionRequested` Event
The `OnPermissionRequested` function handles permission requests, such as camera or microphone access. You can customize it to automatically allow permissions for specific resources.
2. Modify the Script
Open your main script (UserMain) and add the following implementation to the `OnPermissionRequested` function:
function OnPermissionRequested(URI: string; PermissionKind: Integer; UserInitiated: Boolean; StateDefault: Integer): Integer;
begin
// This function handles permission requests.
// Parameters:
// - URI: The URI or URL associated with the permission request.
// - PermissionKind: The type of permission being requested:
// - 0: Unknown permission
// - 1: Microphone access
// - 2: Camera access
// - 3: Geolocation access
// - 4: Notifications
// - 5: Other sensors access
// - 6: Clipboard read access
// - UserInitiated: Indicates whether the user initiated the request (true) or not (false).
// - StateDefault: The default state for the permission:
// - 0: Use default behavior
// - 1: Allow the permission
// - 2: Deny the permission
// Automatically allow camera access
if PermissionKind = 2 then
Result := 1 // Allow the permission
else
Result := StateDefault; // Use the default behavior for other permissions
end;
3. Explanation of the Code
•PermissionKind = 2: This identifies a request for Camera access.
•Result := 1: This line forces the function to automatically allow access to the Webcam.
•StateDefault: For other permissions (e.g., microphone or geolocation), the default behavior is applied.
4. Save and Compile
Save the script changes and recompile your project to ensure the new behavior is applied.
5. Testing
Run your application and verify that Webcam access is granted automatically without prompting the user.
•Be cautious when automatically allowing permissions, as it can raise privacy concerns.
•Adjust the logic to suit your application's security requirements, especially when handling multiple permissions.
•Windows must be configured to allow the app to use the webcam.
