Hello Jerome and all Restlet fans! I have spent my last 2 days trying to set the authorization header to a certain value, using the restlet gwt api. However, I was unsuccessful, so I started looking at the source code. You specifically said in the previous message that "an authorization header" is automatically created for you when you specify a ChallengeResponse object (also mentioned in wiki), but the only code that actually does something with the ChallengeResponse object is located in GwtHttpClientHelper lines 86-92:
if (request.getChallengeResponse() != null) { result.getRequestBuilder().setUser( request.getChallengeResponse().getIdentifier()); result.getRequestBuilder().setPassword( String.valueOf(request.getChallengeResponse() .getSecret())); } I have tried all kind of value combinations, but none showed the "Authorization" header in Firebug. WHAT AM I MISSING here? PS: I don't need a password set here, just a association between "Authorization" -> "Id" in headers map Thanks, Alex -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Setting-Http-Authorization-header-part-2-tp4051325p4051325.html Sent from the Restlet Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------ http://restlet.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=4447&dsMessageId=2423357
