Hello, I'm trying to integrate authentication into my RESTLets however I'm having trouble understanding the authentication scheme that Restlet implements. It seems that most of the examples use the "Guard" class... however this is now deprecated... It seems that ChallengeAuthenticator should be used instead. Also, most of the examples only show simple password validation. How would we extend this to using a database? I understand there are AuthenticationHelpers... how do these fit in? It seems there are many powerful features we can use but I'm having trouble understanding how to use them all together.
I guess I'm having trouble understanding how these big pieces fit together... as most of the examples seem to be overly simplistic. If you could point me in the right direction on how to use the 2.0 authentication features I'd much appreciate it.
