Digest Authentication #5

Closed alistairg closed 11 years ago

alistairg commented 11 years ago

I added Digest Authentication support, and the ability to set request-specific timeout and method.

Awesome code - thankyou! :)

Hello,

I can see two issues in this code:

1) in case of wrong authentication, the server will keep on responding 401 and STHTTPRequest will keep on providing the wrong credentials, endlessly 2) I am not sure we should let the user set requestMethod, since it is automatically decided (GET or POST) according to POSTDictionary existence

I will merge the code and try to improve it.

Thank you for contributing, and don't hesitate to do it again.
