This method returns nil if the protocol doesn’t use errors to indicate an authentication failure.

This method will return nil if the protocol doesn’t use responses to indicate an authentication failure.

The previous failure count is set to count. The response should contain the NSURLResponse for the authentication failure, or nil if it is not applicable to the challenge. The error should contain the NSError for the authentication failure, or nil if it is not applicable to the challenge. The object that initiated the authentication challenge is set to sender.

This method will return nil if there is no default credential for this challenge.If you have previously attempted to authenticate and failed, this method returns the most recent failed credential.If the proposed credential is not nil and returns YES when sent the message hasPassword, then the credential is ready to use as-is. If the proposed credential returns NO for hasPassword, then the credential provides a default user name and the client must prompt the user for a corresponding password.

The sender should be sent a useCredential:forAuthenticationChallenge:, continueWithoutCredentialForAuthenticationChallenge: or cancelAuthenticationChallenge: when the client is finished processing the authentication challenge.
