RE: [platform-update-dev] Hunting season open

Hi Anjou,
I am not sure what you mean by 'credentials'
can you elaborate ?

UpdateManager works on URL and expect a stream back.
Updatemanager does not care if the stream is built on demand or static.
The returned site.xml can contain complex URL with servlet and cookies
embedded in the URL itself

Does it help ?

I am sorry, I am trying to understand how this will work. If I protect the
site.xml with a complex service, is there a place in the update manager,
where I can say use these credentials for this site ?

regards,
-Anou
