Keith Wall commented on QPID-6965:
----------------------------------
Changes look reasonable to me. Minor code change made to use a constant
consistently.
> Make preemptive HTTP authentication pluggable
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: QPID-6965
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6965
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Java Broker
> Reporter: Keith Wall
> Assignee: Keith Wall
> Fix For: qpid-java-6.0.1, qpid-java-6.1
>
>
> Currently the HTTP module includes the ability to support a preemptive
> {{Authorization: Basic-Auth <base64>}} authentication. (This is one where
> the client's request includes the Basic-Auth header providing correctly
> encoded credentials allowing the client's interaction with the Broker to be
> 'single-shot', without the need to separately authenticate a session). This
> is very useful when scripting with tools such as {{curl}}.
> This ability should be generalised so that other types of preemptive
> authentication can be supported too. One example would be a OAUTH's bearer
> authorization header {{Authorization: Bearer <token}}. See
> [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#page-5].
