---------------------------------------
Hi Dennis
Thanks, FYI, I've passed a link to this JIRA to the experts group - it is one
of the pending 2.0 Client API issues.
Generally I have no problems at all with adding the extensions - but in this
case I'd rather prefer to wait given that the workaround exists.
Do something like Base64Utility.encode("username:password"); and then do
webTarget.request().header("Authorization", "Basic " + base64EncodedValue);
> Provide an easy way to set authentication for JAXRS client

> {code:java}
> Client client = ClientBuilder.newClient().register(new
> java.net.Authenticator() {
> @Override
> protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
> return new PasswordAuthentication("myuser",
> "mypassword".toCharArray());
> }
> });
> {code}
