With 2.0 Client API, as far as Basic auth is concerned, one can either
set a WebTarget header or use a filter, I believe in both cases it is
thread safe

I'm likely going to be implementing a REST service call using ClientBuilder,

can be sure it's thread-safe.
I'm having trouble getting a clear picture on some of these details from the main docs.
I found the section about using ClientBuilder
(http://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-client-api.html), but that doesn't mention auth. When
I searched for "basic" on the same page, I found some references to doing this
with a WebClient, but I'm not sure of the relevance of that. I also can't find a
statement about thread-safety. I understand that Client is an interface, but CXF is
providing an implementation, so I would assume it's possible to determine that.
I note that links to "JAXRSClientFactoryBean" on that page get a 404. I have a
feeling that class is relevant to this. I also don't see this class in the standard
Javadoc set.
