Ankit Dangi created FELIX-5680:
----------------------------------
Summary: Add createResource(URLConnection conn) to
DataModelHelperImpl to support URLs that require Authentication
Key: FELIX-5680
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5680
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Bundle Repository (OBR)
Affects Versions: bundlerepository-2.0.10
Environment: macOS 10.12.6, Felix 5.6.4
Reporter: Ankit Dangi
Fix For: bundlerepository-2.0.12
Referring to classes:
* org.apache.felix.bundlerepository.impl.DataModelHelperImpl.java
* org.apache.felix.bundlerepository.impl.FileUtil.java
Current scenario: The method DataModelHelperImpl.createResource(URL bundleUrl)
has an inner method loadEntry(String name) that calls
FileUtil.openURL(bundleUrl) on the line 479. FileUtil.openURL(URL bundleURL) is
a helper function for FileUtil.openURL(URLConnection conn).
Problem: It restricts the use of URL connections that require authorization. As
a result, a 401 error occurs for bundleURLs that require
HttpHeaders.AUTHORIZATION. Note: It is not the same as setting
Proxy-Authorization because Authorization is a different HTTPHeader.
Possible Solution: Overload the DataModelHelperImpl.createResource() such that
it takes as input a URLConnection object which then calls the
FileUtil.openURL(conn). An URLConnection object has method
setRequestProperty(key, value) which could then make it possible for
DataModelHelperImpl.createResource() to handle diverse scenarios.
