Julian Reschke commented on CONNECTORS-1564: -------------------------------------------- > The proper approach to this, and this is how it has been done, like in Maven > Wagon, is to use the {{Expect}} header. This works perfectly fine with a lot > of clients and many servers, e.g. curl, HttpClient and Jetty, Tomcat. I assume you mean "Expect: 100-continue"- That still requires one round-trip, and AFAIR, it's not trivial to support properly in servers due to API restrictions (in the past, servlet API, but that might have improved). > Support preemptive authentication to Solr connector > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CONNECTORS-1564 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1564 > Project: ManifoldCF > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Lucene/SOLR connector > Reporter: Erlend GarĂ¥sen > Assignee: Karl Wright > Priority: Major > Attachments: CONNECTORS-1564.patch > > > We should post preemptively in case the Solr server requires basic > authentication. This will make the communication between ManifoldCF and Solr > much more effective instead of the following: > * Send a HTTP POST request to Solr > * Solr sends a 401 response > * Send the same request, but with a "{{Authorization: Basic}}" header > With preemptive authentication, we can send the header in the first request. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
