HttpClient & BTEA
Has anyone integrated the Block TEA into HttpClient...? I've not fiddled
with the internals of HttpClient before, so I'm not really sure where I
need to begin, can anyone give me any pointers...?
Cheers,

It does indeed.

Bob,
For incoming entities HttpMethod#getResponseBodyAsStream() will give you
the content input stream, which you can feed into a BTEA decoder. For
outgoing entities you should implement RequestEntity interface and use
its RequestEntity#writeRequest(OutputStream out) method to stream out
data produced by a BTEA encoder.
Hope this helps
Oleg

Sorry, not with it today... Encryption of request and decryption of
the resulting response based on a settable key.

Bob,
What _specifically_ you intend to be using BTEA for? Some custom
authentication scheme of a sort? Content coding (encryption/decryption
of request/response content transmitted across the wire)? Something
else?

I have to talk to some home grown servers that use it. I know what I
need to do, I just don't know where in the HttpClient code I need to
modify or insert the BTEA logic.

Bob,
What is it you want to be using the Block TEA encryption for?
