Hi List, I am having problems with NSURLCredential and that the username and password are apparently sent in ISO Latin 1 encoding. At least the guys on the server development side are complaining this is the case.
I did not find any information on how the credential is encoded or if it is possible to change it at all. The password I am having trouble with is the following: nővér. I tried making sure the NSURL sent to the NSMutableURLRequest was encoded and escaped properly in UTF-8 and also added charset=utf-8 to the content-type header of the request as I have run out of options where to look. I even tried to encode my NSString using UTF-8 into an NSData object and then creating a new UTF-8 encoded NSString from this data and set the username and password accordingly, but to no avail. The strangest thing is if I try to access the password returned when I receive an authentication challenge ([[challenge proposedCredential] password]) it returns a properly formatted string. Any ideas, pointers are greatly appreciated.
