AccessTokenCredentials should use "OAuth" authentication scheme #134

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
at least I think it should - reading 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-oauth-v2-10#page-30

   The "Authorization" request header field is used by clients to make
   authenticated token requests.  The client uses the "OAuth"
   authentication scheme to include the access token in the request.

I'm trying to use g-a-p-c to authenticate against a service that is handing me 
access tokens using AccessTokenCredentials and its not working (but it does if 
i change 'Bearer' to 'OAuth' in the 'Authorization' header).

That is draft 10 of the OAuth 2.0 spec, the latest version is draft 26, and the 
correct scheme name is "Bearer":

I had a strong feeling I didn't understand this at all. ;)

Thanks Joe!
