Great news! Our attempts at handling authentication in p2 were not very successful due to interaction with java.net.Authenticator, and the cumbersome pattern of catching exceptions, trying to guess if they are authentication failures, prompting and then retrying. Hopefully pushing this down into ECF will make life easier for all clients of ECF including p2.

After Ganymede, we expect this to be usable for (e.g.) automatic login to remote accounts, single-sign on, local storage of user-data/properties by accounts, etc. For those that are interested, please see/join bug: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=232116 Also see mailing list posting: http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/ecf-dev/msg01553.html _______________________________________________ equinox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/equinox-dev
