------------------------------

             Summary: POST to resource server with authentication
                 Key: OLTU-130
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OLTU-130
             Project: Apache Oltu
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: oauth2-client
    Affects Versions: 0.31
            Reporter: Christian


There seems to be no feature to post a resource to the server with authentication. But that's something almost every application needs. Please add it.
 
I'm trying to figure out a way and will share it with you, so that this feature gets build in near future.

Right now, I'm overriding OAuthBearerClientRequest to allow setting a message body. But there is still a problem with the content type, which is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded". I haven't found a solution yet to set it.
 
Best regards,
Christian
