Completely overhaul GSS-API-based authentication backend

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      The current implementation does not reflect the way GSS-API-based authentication should be done. It has several design flaws.

      This is an umbrella task for:

      1. Deprecate all old classes
      2. Investigate how it has to be plugged into HttpClient
      3. Reimplement from scratch
      4. Thoroughly test all new stuff
      5. Rewrite documentation

      Design notes are canonically available under: https://wiki.apache.org/HttpComponents/IssueTracking/HTTPCLIENT-1625
