java - Login with HTTPS to htaccess protected directory -

the app building needs perform login username , password. using defaulthttpclient execute request , setting username , password credentials. server expects htacces-login. result not logintoken hoped for. instead returns errormessage. can tell me went wrong in code? thank help! pr

private string httploginrequest() {     string logintoken = null;     string loginurl = "https://somedomain.com/login";      defaulthttpclient client = new defaulthttpclient();     client.getcredentialsprovider().setcredentials(new authscope(authscope.any_host, authscope.any_port), new usernamepasswordcredentials("username", "password"));     httpresponse httpresponse;     httpentity entity;     try{         httpresponse = client.execute(request);         entity = httpresponse.getentity();         if (entity != null) {             inputstream instream = entity.getcontent();             logintoken = convertinputstreamtostring(instream);         }     } catch (clientprotocolexception e) {         client.getconnectionmanager().shutdown();         e.printstacktrace();     } catch (ioexception e) {         client.getconnectionmanager().shutdown();         e.printstacktrace();     }     return logintoken; } 

thank guys help. figured out. mix of different things: 1. cant see in code above (because removed accident) request post. our api expects request though told otherwise 2. put credentials in wrong place. have set in httpget-object in exampe given commonsware 3. have encode credentials base64 mentioned you

here code worked me:

public string httploginrequest() {     string logintoken = null;     string loginurl = "https://somedomain.com/login";     //     defaulthttpclient client = new defaulthttpclient();     httpresponse httpresponse;     httpentity entity;     httpget request = new httpget(loginurl);     request.addheader("authorization", "basic " + base64.encodecredentials("username", "password"));     try{         httpresponse = client.execute(request);         entity = httpresponse.getentity();         if (entity != null) {             inputstream instream = entity.getcontent();             logintoken = convertinputstreamtostring(instream);             log.d(log_tag, "login token: " + logintoken);         }     } catch (clientprotocolexception e) {         client.getconnectionmanager().shutdown();         e.printstacktrace();     } catch (ioexception e) {         client.getconnectionmanager().shutdown();         e.printstacktrace();     }     return logintoken; } 

when find time try example given in answer looks lot more need other requests in project.

as far know need rewrite hostnameverifier return true:

public class myhostnameverifier implements hostnameverifier {     @override     public boolean verify(string hostname, sslsession session) {     return true;     } } 

i use httpsurlconnection method. therefore need create own base64 class authentication encryption , own trust manager
