FileTransfer, redirects and authentication [message #624913]

Hi,
In p2 I have found an issue when a request is redirected, and the final
destination is on another host and requires authentication.

My issue is that I need to get hold of the final destination URL that
triggers the HTTP 401, as this is the destination I need to show to the
user when prompting for username and password.

So question: How can I detect that filetransfer has been redirected when
I get an IncomingFileTransferException with a 401 code?

Regards
- henrik

I don't immediately know. This clearly depends upon how the httpclient
impl handles/does redirects, and I would/will have to investigate
that...but can't immediately.

It might be good to open a bug to track...and probably better to also
raise on ecf-dev rather than newsgroup (only because I/others...e.g.
Henrich...check the newsgroup perhaps a little less often).

Hi Folks,

I've created a new enhancement request to create a Google Wave provider
for ECF

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280347

Please add yourself to the bug if you are interested in either
participating/helping with this, or are interested in seeing it
happen/consuming/using such work.

Thanks,

Scott
