HTTP Digest-MD5 Authentication Testing with httpbin.org

See more HTTP Examples

The URL https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd is password protected with user="user" and password="passwd". It requires Digest-MD5 authentication. Chilkat will automatically handle Digest-MD5 authentication as required by the server response. In this case, however, the server will fail the authentication unless a Cookie is included in the request. The cookie can have any name and any value. (Yes, this is ridiculous, and many developers have probably spent countless hours assuming their Digest-MD5 implementations were incorrect.) Android™

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    // This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    CkHttp http = new CkHttp();

    http.put_Login("user");
    http.put_Password("passwd");

    // Add a cookie to satisfy httpbin.org's desire for cookies..
    // Otherwise, it will fail the perfectly valid Digest-MD5 authentication.
    http.SetRequestHeader("Cookie","something=\"something\"");

    String strResponse = http.quickGetStr("https://httpbin.org/digest-auth/auth/user/passwd");
    if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false) {
        Log.i(TAG, http.lastErrorText());
        return;
        }

    Log.i(TAG, strResponse);

    int status = http.get_LastStatus();
    Log.i(TAG, "response status code = " + String.valueOf(status));

    // The output of this program is:
    // 
    // 	{ 
    // 	  "authenticated": true, 
    // 	  "user": "user"
