HttpBasicAuthentification scenarion

Hi all,
 i am trying to use the axis2 ServiceClient against
web service endpoint that has http basic authentification enabled.

I wonder - is there a way to get hold of the http-commons HttpClient
that is used underneath in order to set the Credentials?

Thanks,
Nencho

If  you are using Axis2 1.2 upwards,

       HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator auth = new
HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator();
        auth.setUsername("foo");
        auth.setPassword("bar");
        // if you really need to speed up the basic auth; that is not
waiting till the server challenge,
        auth.setPreemptiveAuthentication(true);

        ...
        options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.AUTHENTICATE,auth);

else  http://wso2.org/library/161

Thus, with Axis2 1.2 prior, the configuration of transport authentication
has written is a way to encapsulate the underline auth challenge from the
server. User just have to provide the correct credentials to
HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator bean, rest is up to Axis2 transport
mechanism.

Thank you

Saminda

Hi,

Stub.getOptions should help you.

// Sample code

HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator auth = new
HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator();

auth.setPreemptiveAuthentication(true);
auth.setAuthSchemes(authSchemes);

auth.setUsername("username"); 
auth.setPassword("password");

Options options = ((YourStub)._getServiceClient().getOptions(); 

options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.AUTHENTICATE, auth);

YourStub._getServiceClient().setOptions(options);
