Michael Osipov commented on CONNECTORS-1564:
--------------------------------------------
[~reschke], why are you look at the servlet spec? *You* wrote the RFC 7230 and
forth. It fully describes this header which is implemented in Tomcat. As far as
I understand this is controlled mostly from the client with the header. RFC
7231, chapter 5.1.1.
> Support preemptive authentication to Solr connector

> Key: CONNECTORS-1564
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1564
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Lucene/SOLR connector
> Reporter: Erlend GarĂ¥sen

> Attachments: CONNECTORS-1564.patch

>
> We should post preemptively in case the Solr server requires basic
> authentication. This will make the communication between ManifoldCF and Solr
> much more effective instead of the following:
> * Send a HTTP POST request to Solr
> * Solr sends a 401 response
> * Send the same request, but with a "{{Authorization: Basic}}" header
> With preemptive authentication, we can send the header in the first request.
