I am reasonably sure about that. I believe it should be feasible to wrap all JNI calls into a custom CredentialsProvider implementation and just provide an extended Credentials interface that can optionally produce a hash value instead of a username/password pair. As long as those two interfaces do not change no one should _ever_ worry about some platform specific CredentialsProvider impl residing in the contrib package. Roland Honestly, I really think this whole native code thing is not as bad as it may seem. Cheers Oleg > or you are saying that it will > take a Windows machine to work on HttpAuth.
