Category: Library (Lib) Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Accepted Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Reese (rrttjj) >Assigned to: Johannes Gijsbers (jlgijsbers) Summary: fixes urllib2 digest to allow arbitrary methods Initial Comment: urllib2.AbstractDigestAuthHandler.get_authorization always forced the method to be either 'GET' or 'HEAD' when computing the digest. This meant that digest auth for any other method would fail automatically; for example, DELETE or PUT, for any HTTP servers that support them, or DAV verbs like PROPFIND. This single line change just calls Request.get_method instead of hardcoding the defaulting logic. Request.get_method still forces the method to be either GET or HEAD, but a determined caller can override Request if they need to use a different method. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Johannes Gijsbers (jlgijsbers) Date: 2005-01-09 06:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=469548 A very determined caller indeed. I've checked in the patch on maint24 and HEAD. Less duplication and more flexibility never hurt anyone, right? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1095362&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
