Hey Nick,
This is what I do for the basic authentication for my application. Hope this
helps.
-------------------------
private static void setAuthentication(DefaultHttpClient httpClient,
HttpRequest methodReq, Credentials credentials, AuthScope authScope) {
httpClient.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(authScope, credentials);
BasicScheme basicAuth = new BasicScheme();
try {
Header authHeader = basicAuth.authenticate(credentials, methodReq);
methodReq.addHeader(authHeader);
} catch (AuthenticationException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
---------------
