I have a xml database which supports xml:db api's.
I am connecting  to my database by making use of xml pseudo protocol.
Proble is since it connects through at
org.xmldb.api.DatabaseManager.getCollection(uri) which in turn passes
null as username and password to method
getCollection( uri, user,password) of our DatabaseImpl. So fails in
getting connection. Our xml:db implementation
Is there any way to pass username and password along with uri to method
org.xmldb.api.DatabaseManager.getCollection.

It's not that difficult: there are two ways of doing so, and I need to decide which one is the best:

1. configure user and password in the general configuration (cocoon.xconf);

2. parse the URL for user/password info (tricky due to 1.2/1.3 different URL treatment: I've been away for a while so I don't recall if we dropped 1.2 compatibility away. Has any decision been made?);

and even:

3. let the sysadm set a username/password pair in cocoon.xonf and let the user have a chance to override the system wide values by embedding user and password info in the URL.

Which one would you all think is best?

Anyway, ould you please file a bug in Bugzilla to keep track of this issue? TIA. And, just out of curiosity, what XML:DB compliant database are you using?

Ciao,
