I needed to access a URL protected by basic auth so I extended the GET task
to do so. It does Java2 style HTTP basic authentication.
Would people on this list be interested in this extension?
Here's the relevant portion of a typical build file
<target name="protectedTask" >
<taskdef name="getBA"
classname="com.grassroots_tech.util.ant.HttpGetBasicAuth"/>
<getBA src="http://some/protected/url/";
username="seeker" password="supersecret" dest="log.out" />
