Quick Question
In the older versions of HttpClient, there was a UI window that
automatically popped up and asked for username and password input when
requested. Does that feature still exists? I can't seem to find it. It
would be handy.

Hi Michael,
I believe it is the innovation.ch HTTPClient package that you're
thinking of.

Oleg -
I could have sworn it was HttpClient, but it was a few years ago, so I
could easily be mistaken. In any case, I'll take a look at the
CreditialsProvider interface.
BTW, HttpClient is fantastic! I'm really enjoying taking it out for a
spin with a home-brewed offline browser I'm playing with.
Thanks,
M.

Michael,
I doubt this feature ever existed in HttpClient. Unlike standard Java's
HttpUrlConnection HttpClient has never had a UI of any sort. We always
wanted to keep HttpClient decoupled from application specific aspects
such as UI. This said in HttpClient 3.0 there's now a way to hook up a
custom authentication dialog using CredentialsProvider interface. See
example below
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-commons/httpclient/src/examples/InteractiveAuthenticationExample.java?view=auto
Hope this helps
Oleg
