Hi Ian,
We don't currently support specifying the password in the URL. From what
I've read, from a security perspective it's pretty iffy...so we just
didn't go to the effort to support it.
It is possible, however, to specify a password (e.g. for basic
authentication) via the IConnectContext (rather than embedded in the
URI/URL).
ECF allows the use of any new protocol/URI scheme...so you could
add/create your own provider that parsed the URI in any manner desired
(and possibly just used/reuse an existing provider). e.g.
ianbull:http://irbull:password@localhost/repository.

I'm trying to access a p2 repository using the following syntax:

And it's failing a parse exception:
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "password@localhost"
From the stack, it appears that ECF is trying to use 'irbull' as the
host and password@localhost as the port. In
HttpClientFileSystemBrowse, the URI is converted to a String, and the
string is parsed into components (host, port, etc..). Does anybody
know if this is supported? If not, is there a URI syntax that we use
for specifying usernames and passwords in p2?
Cheers,
Ian
