Enable preemptive basic authentication by default
-------------------------------------------------
Key: CAMEL-4056
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4056
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: camel-http
Affects Versions: 2.7.2
Reporter: Richard Kettelerij
Assignee: Richard Kettelerij
Fix For: 2.8.0
Currently Camel only sends credentials when a server explicitly prompts for
basic authentication. However there're cases where a URL is available to both
authenticated as well as unauthenticated parties. In that case the
{{camel-http}} component won't sent any credentials to the server, even though
the credentials are explicitly provided in the URI or Exchange.
This can be solved by enabling preemptive authentication in Apache HttpClient.
In that case the credentials will always be provided whether the server asks
for it or not. Enabling this provides a sensible default.
