Authenticating with AMQP Messenger API

[Marko Asplund <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

What's the correct way to authenticate to an AMQP server using the
Messenger API?
I've tried including authentication information in the AMQP address as
described in org.apache.qpid.proton.messenger.Messenger javadoc like this:

amqp://user1:pwd1@127.0.0.1:5672/topic://test.foo

This doesn't seem to work with ActiveMQ 5.8.0, though I'm able to
authenticate and communicate successfully using SwiftMQ client v9.4.0. With
Qpid the following entries appear in ActiveMQ log:

2013-10-09 23:31:21,863 | WARN  | Failed to add Connection

This happens with Proton 0.5.

The java version of the messenger API currently only supports ANONYMOUS 
and not PLAIN which would be needed to authenticate with a username and 
password.

There is a JIRA open for that: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-421
