RHTTPTransaction, authentication, 5800

[lballo]

Hi all,

Does anybody know how to perform HTTP authentication on RHTTPTransaction level?

I know about MHTTPAuthenticationCallback but it looks like one works on RHTTPSession level.

Tried to use http://userassword@... form of url. Doesn't work. Got 401 HTTP status code.

Have you tried MHTTPAuthenticationCallback? I have never seen "userassword@site"-format appearing in HTTP context anyway.

I suppose MHTTPAuthenticationCallback is not suitable for me.
I throw many transactions thru single RHTTPSession for different URL's.
And only few ones require authentication specific to URL.

Well, I have absolutely no experience with it, but anyway: I assume that it is suitable for you.

Now, one of us is certainly wrong - and I will not be the one who tests it, sorry.
