GPD: deploy and HTTP authentication

[akakunin]

Hello!
It is very nice that now GDP may be configured to deploy process to some non-standard url, so, it is possible to use it not only with webapp from jBPM project.

But, in our project we use Http Authentication for working with web-application, and, as result it is not possible to deploy process directly from GDP - since "Test Connection" returns HTTP 401 code.

Is it very difficult to implement support for Http authentication in GPD? May be somebody may point us the place there to do it and we can try to implement it by ourself?

Alexey,

I have plans to add Http authentication. It should not be so difficult and would indeed be a good addition. I'll try and add it in the near future. An obvious related change will be the protection of the deployment servlet with Http authentication...

Regards,
Koen

Thank you for your answer,
Should I add feature request into jBPM JIRA?
