> 2.10.1 makes several improvements to HTTP operation handling to support
> authentication on updates. However the support for both queries and updates
> is still only for HTTP authentication which means it cannot be used with
> systems that use forms based authentication e.g. Apache mod_auth_form
> http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_auth_form.html
> Supporting this will require some fairly substantial reworking of the HTTP
> handling code for both queries and updates since it needs to support several
> things:
> 1 - Being able to carry out a login operation to an arbitrary URL to perform
> the authentication and initalize the necessary cookies
> 2 - Storing and presenting appropriate cookies over multiple requests
> If we are to carry out this work it may be good to standardize to using a
> single HTTP library, currently queries use HttpQuery (a wrapper around the
> JRE provided HttpURLConnection) while updates use HttpOp (a wrapper around
> the Apache HttpClient library)
> In doing this standardization we should also standardize how parameters are
> passed through these layers. For queries the QueryEngineHTTP sets properties
> on the HttpQuery object while for updates we pass them via a HttpContext
> object.
