I've been using the "ChallengeResponse" mechanism to authenticate users so far.

ChallengeResponse challengeResponse = getRequest().getChallengeResponse();
if( challengeResponse == null ){
     throw new RuntimeException("not authenticated");
}
String login = challengeResponse.getIdentifier();
String password = new String(challengeResponse.getSecret());

>From my understanding, "ChallengeResponse" requires that the username and

https://username:[email protected]/my_secure_document

I wasn't able to figure out how to pull this information from the URL in order 
to authenticate.  How is this done?  

Thanks so much!
