[Building Sakai] EB client example code?

[Aaron Zeckoski]

EB generally delegates the auth to Sakai.

>From /direct/src/java/org/sakaiproject/entitybroker/servlet/SakaiDirectServlet.java

    public void handleUserLogin(HttpServletRequest req,
HttpServletResponse res, String path) {
        // attempt basic auth first
        try {
            if (basicAuth.doAuth(req, res)) {
                return;
            }
        } catch (IOException ioe) {
            throw new RuntimeException("IO Exception intercepted
during logon ", ioe);
        }

        // get the Sakai session (using the cover)
        Session session = SessionManager.getCurrentSession();
....

So you will need to have basic auth enabled to use the basic auth
portion. In that same way, you have to have the session keys enabled
to use that part. Otherwise you have login directly in the same way
you would for the access servlet (using normal user/pass challenge).
