Has anyone an idea about getting password & username into the webservice without relying on the popup form? Within a WP8 app, it doesn't want to allow passing these via the URL. Any ideas?
string authenticate = string.Format("http://{0}:{1}@{2}:{3}/MCWS/v1/Authenticate",
App.TheSession.JRiverServer.Username,
App.TheSession.JRiverServer.Password,
App.TheSession.JRiverServer.UseIP,
App.TheSession.JRiverServer.Port );
passed down ultimately into something like
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri);
request.Method = HttpMethod.Get;
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)await request.GetResponseAsync();
isn't accepting the parameters or formate. I notice that pasted into IE it won't work, apsted into Firefox,Opera or Chrome it does.... MS doesn't consider this method to be secure.
Thoughts?
