Description

I'm meeting a problem I really can't resolve and after reading many lines of code in axis2, here where I am :

• I'm trying to call a ms exchange 2007 WS
• I setup I think my authentication code using this kind of code :

final Options options = this.serviceExchange._getServiceClient().getOptions();
final Authenticator authenticator = new Authenticator();

// Cf. http://ws.apache.org/axis2/1_5_1/http-transport.html#preemptive_auth
final List<String> authScheme = new ArrayList<String>();
authScheme.add(Authenticator.NTLM);
authScheme.add(Authenticator.BASIC);

authenticator.setAuthSchemes(authScheme);
authenticator.setUsername(this.username);
authenticator.setPassword(this.password);
authenticator.setHost(this.host);
authenticator.setDomain(this.domain);
authenticator.setPort(this.port);

options.setTimeOutInMilliSeconds(this.timeout);
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.CHUNKED, "false");
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.REUSE_HTTP_CLIENT, "true");
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.AUTHENTICATE, authenticator);

this.serviceExchange._getServiceClient().setOptions(options);

I then get the following execution logs where you can see that there is no credential providers found.
So I searched the net, and found this http://markmail.org/search/list:org%2Eapache%2Ews%2Eaxis-dev+CredentialsProvider where you can see that the credential providers was first added and the deleted in org/apache/axis2/transport/http/AbstractHTTPSender.java
