The problem is that it doesn't have any Basic Authentication (like get does) or any way to specify a file upload (despite what the docs say, "rawFile" is not...
Hi, currently I'm developing in eclipse 3.5 in different project web applications for tomcat 6.0.24. For each of this project I have written a ant build file to generate the war file to deploy the project to the tomcat container.
