问题
I'm trying to create a J2ME app, which talks to webserver using HttpConnection connector.
When I am talking to the WebServer, I have to authenticate using Basic HTTP auth, which normally goes like
http://username:password@website.com/rest/api/method
But in J2ME, when I construct a url of this form, it doesn't work.
I also tried adding request property,
hc = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(url);
hc.setRequestProperty("User", "alagu");
hc.setRequestProperty("pass", "mypassword");
but didn't work.
Has anyone done j2me based HTTP auth before? Thanks in advance.
回答1:
It could be J2ME has no support for basic authentication, I might be wrong. If you want to try just setting the authentication header in the request yourself you'll likely need a different header then what you're using.
From the rfc:
To receive authorization, the client sends the userid and password, separated by a single colon (":") character, within a base64 [7] encoded string in the credentials.
[...]
If the user agent wishes to send the userid "Aladdin" and password "open sesame", it would use the following header field:
Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==
So just create the string "User:Password", base64 encode it and then call setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic "+ encodedUserAndPass)

Incredible, it works like a charm:
String url = "hppt://www.example.com";
HttpConnection hc = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(url);
hc.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic "+ BasicAuth.encode("user", "password"));

I used Bouncy Castle cryptographic library's Base64 Encoder/Decoder. It is very powerful in overcoming lots of limitations set by Java ME/J2ME API. It's open-source and it works for both Java ME and Android.
