Thank you for your response. You are right with line 42 it is wrong.
But that's not the main error for me. In line 43 I get "The method setCredentials(AuthScope, Credentials) in the type HttpState is not applicable for the arguments (AuthScope, Credentials)" in Eclipse. And thats the reason why I can't even test the whole thing. (I know that I have to change line 42) I'm sorry for lacking these details in my first answer! :/ On 20 Jul., 21:44, Mark Murphy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > code_android_festival_way wrote: > > Hello guys! > > > I'm trying to achieve a basic HTTP authentication.
