Hi, I am quite new to MINA. I needed some help regarding design of an application(simple client and server). It goes something like this
1. Client initiates communication with a server. It has to authenticate itself using basic authentication. So it needs to send Base64 encoded "username;password" string to the server and read the corresponding reply. 2. Next after it is authorized it needs to simply keep checking for data the server sends i.e the client doesn't send anything but simply keeps reading and displaying the data the server pushes to the client. This pushed data has a certain format. I was able to write the encoding/ decoding filter for this. My question is how do I go about the authentication part. Can I initially apply the basic authentication(BA) filter and also my pushed-data filter and later remove my BA filter once I am done with it. How do I go about designing my BA filter ? Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Parth Santpurkar
