Authorization Required even though credentials are provided

[PhilippC]

I am executing the following code:

 var ioc = new IOConnectionInfo()
        {
            Path = "https://webdav.mc.gmx.net/file.txt",
            UserName = [my user name],
            Password = [my password]
        };

        {
            var handler = new HttpClientHandler();
            handler.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ioc.UserName, ioc.Password);

            var httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
            using (Stream stream = httpClient.GetStreamAsync(ioc.Path).Result)
            {
                Android.Util.Log.Debug("KP2AT", "HttpClientHandler works.");
            }
        }

        {
            var handler = new NativeMessageHandler();
            handler.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ioc.UserName, ioc.Password);

            var httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
            using (Stream stream = httpClient.GetStreamAsync(ioc.Path).Result)
            {
                Android.Util.Log.Debug("KP2AT", "NativeMessageHandler works.");
            }
        }

The first log message (HttpClientHandler works) is written out, the second is not because of an exception: System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException : 401 (Authorization Required)

Is there anything wrong in my code? Why is NativeMessageHandler no "Drop-In-Replacement" as "advertised" here?

NetworkCredential doesn't seem to be used anywhere. So this might be a feature not supported yet.

Is there any other way to pass credentials then? Am 29.02.2016 13:42 schrieb "Tomasz Cielecki" notifications@github.com:

You could just set the header?

Maybe something like this: http://stackoverflow.com/a/6239579/368379

I was planning to use a WebDAV Client implementation (built on top of HttpClient) and thought I could just replace the handler, but it looks like this is not the case.

does setting the Credentials object on the NativeMessageHandler really just do absolutely nothing?
