authorization flow broken about async-http-client HOT 4 CLOSED

Looking...thanks!

OK, after looking, you can implement what you call 'short term' solution as a ResponseFilter. For the long-term solution, any contribution is welcomed! I will keep the issue opened and will see what can be done for 1.8.0.

NettyAsyncHttpProvider does not support authorization customization (I need to implement HTTP-MAC). Every time 401 response returned, Netty takes the control and replays the request with invalid credential. As previous version, Netty supported this kind of customization. Why did you guys remove this feature? The fix is just trival :

                if (statusCode == 401
                        && wwwAuth.size() > 0
      +++++       && realm != null 
                        && !future.getAndSetAuth(true)) {

Looks like the && realm != null test has been brought back a long time ago: https://github.com/AsyncHttpClient/async-http-client/blob/async-http-client-1.7.24/src/main/java/com/ning/http/client/providers/netty/NettyAsyncHttpProvider.java#L2101

Considering as fixed, please notify otherwise.
