HTTPTransport generates duplicate "Authentication: " headers
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AXISCPP-1059
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXISCPP-1059
Project: Axis-C++
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Transport (axis3)
Affects Versions: current (nightly)
Environment: Any
Reporter: Michael Chen
Source file "axis/trunk/c/src/transport/axis3/HTTPTransport.cpp", line 360.
When generateHTTPHeaders() calls setTransportProperty("Authorization", ...),
the later does NOT replace existing "Authentication: " header but add another
one. My application uses the same stub to call the same service repeatedly.
This resulted in increasingly more and more duplicate "Authentication: " header
being sent to the service. After a while, the service refuses the request.
The common practice is that "set" replaces duplicate key/value pairs, while
"add" implies the acceptance of duplicate keys. setTransportProperty(const
char*, const char*) only remove duplicates of 3 know headers, "Connection",
"Content-Length" and "SOAPAction". This is a design flaw. There should be two
sibling member functions:
setTransportProperty(const char*, const char*)
addTransportProperty(const char*, const char*)
