Description

« Hide

org.codehaus.xfire.transport.http.CommonsHttpMessageSender does not support NTLM authentication.

Here is snippet from XFire 1.1 about authorization:

String username = (String) context.getContextualProperty(Channel.USERNAME);
if (username != null)
{
String password = (String) context.getContextualProperty(Channel.PASSWORD);
client.getParams().setAuthenticationPreemptive(true);
state.setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY, new UsernamePasswordCredentials(username, password));
}

There should be a way to plug custom credentials to the transport stack. To workaround this I had to reimplement
whole http handling stack as subsequent layers are created as local variables instead of access by dependency.

Can attach this patch or at least some code sample ? This will make our work easier

Can you post your client code as well?

Approach similar to Axis 1.x:

int domainIndex = username.indexOf('
');
if (domainIndex > 0 && username.length() > domainIndex + 1) { state.setCredentials( AuthScope.ANY, new NTCredentials( username.substring(0, domainIndex), password, "localhost", // TODO: resolve local host name username.substring(domainIndex+1))); } else { state.setCredentials( AuthScope.ANY, new UsernamePasswordCredentials( username, password)); }
