This works! How did you come to know that? Is there a doc I should have read to know?
Well, strictly speaking, if you read the doc you'll know that's not a legal URL :-)
RFC 1738: Uniform Resource Locators (URL) shows the format:
3.1. Common Internet Scheme Syntax
While the syntax for the rest of the URL may vary depending on the particular scheme selected, URL schemes that involve the direct use of an IP-based protocol to a specified host on the Internet use a common syntax for the scheme-specific data:
//<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<url-path>
*BUT* (see last sentence)
3.3. HTTP
The HTTP URL scheme is used to designate Internet resources accessible using HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol).
The HTTP protocol is specified elsewhere. This specification only describes the syntax of HTTP URLs.
An HTTP URL takes the form:
http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart>
where <host> and <port> are as described in Section 3.1. If :<port> is omitted, the port defaults to 80. No user name or password is allowed.
Which is not to say that it won't, in some circumstances, "work"...
FWIW!
That's not true. You can do:
http://username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
so:
URL tomcatMgr = new URL("http://manager:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080/manager/undeploy?path=/any");
