Hello, You have mentioned that the library supports for digest authentication, but you have used basic http authentication in all of examples. How should digest authentication be implemented on server?

Thanks

I checked the source code, turned out that it is digest by default when you call requestAuthentication(). Also checked with a packet sniffer software and there were no plain password in the request. only username is sent as plain text.
