been wrestling with this for some time. I am trying to access a REST api on my iphone and came across the ASIHTTP framework that would assist me. So i did something like
//call sites, so we can confirm username and password and site/sites
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString: urlbase];
ASIHTTPRequest *request = [[[ASIHTTPRequest alloc] initWithURL:url] autorelease];
[request setUsername:@"doronkatz%40xx.com" ];
[request setPassword:@"xxx"];
Where urlbase is a url to a REST site.
Now, a developer has told me there might be an issue or bug with this framework, and its not passing headers correctly. Is there another way of testing or accessing with authentication a network REST location?
