Can't authenticate using TransporterClient
------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBREM-1246
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBREM-1246
             Project: JBoss Remoting
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 2.5.2.SP3 (Flounder)
            Reporter: Sebastian Dietrich


I'd like to introduce basic authentication in my project which uses TransporterClient to connect to the server. According to the documentation (http://docs.jboss.org/jbossremoting/2.5.3.SP1/html_single/#d0e2251 5.4.11. HTTP(S) Client Invoker - proxy and basic authentication) this is not supported with TransporterClient, but only via response = client.invoke(payload, metadata);
TransporterClient uses response = remotingClient.invoke(request); (see TransporterClient.class Line 321)

Unfortunately I can neither subclass TransporterClient (since its constructors are private) nor decorate it (since its invoke method I'd like to change uses private attributes & methods).

==> Please provide a way to use basic authentication in TransporterClient

This could be done easily via a further constructor/factory method which accepts metadata.
