Andre-John Mas commented on CMIS-291:
-------------------------------------
At the company where I work, Kerberos is used for authentication, as well, via
SPNEGO.
The change of client would be useful for us too. Assuming no work has been done
here, I'll see if I can find time myself. First I need to understand the scope
of the changes.
> Use Commons HttpClient instead of HttpURLConnection

> Key: CMIS-291
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-291
> Project: Chemistry
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: opencmis-client-bindings
> Affects Versions: 0.2.0-incubating
> Reporter: Marko Asplund
>
> OpenCMIS client currently uses HttpURLConnection for HTTP traffic.
> The HttpURLConnection class only provides basic HTTP support so OpenCMIS
> could benefit
> from migrating to Commons HttpClient instead.
> One notable feature of HC is the support for different authentication schemes.
> In addition to HTTP Basic authentication it supports Digest and NTML, and the
> upcoming 4.1 version also does SPNEGO.
