[jira] Commented: (COCOON3-35) Support access to URLs that require authentication.

["Reinhard Poetz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON3-35?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12707656#action_12707656 ] 

Reinhard Poetz commented on COCOON3-35:
---------------------------------------

The URLSource uses the URLUtils http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/excalibur/trunk/components/sourceresolve/api/src/main/java/org/apache/excalibur/source/SourceUtil.java?view=markup

I think the best solution in this case is copying the encodeBASE64() method into the cocoon-pipeline module - it's just about 30 lines of code and it's rather unlikely that they have to be modified in the future.

> Currently our pipeline components cannot access URLs that require authentication.
> While it is possible to create specialized versions of each component and add authentication there, it shouldn't be too difficult to support this feature in every pipeline component we currently have.
