[Geotools-gt2-users] Authenticated WFS getFeature request

[Gerson G. <ger...@gm...>]

Hi,

I've been using the WFS plugin (
http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/library/data/wfs.html) to run
getCapabilities, describeFeatureType and getFeature request against our
local geoserver. It was all working fine until I started talking to a WFS
that requires authentication. I added the WFSDataStoreFactory:USERNAME and
WFSDataStoreFactory:PASSWORD to the list of connectionParameters but the
query only worked for getCapabilities and describeFeatureType requests. Do I
need to do anything special if I am to run a getFeature request requiring
authentication?

Here's how my code looks like at the moment...

        String getCapabilitiesURL = "
> https://www2.landgate.wa.gov.au/ows/wfsabs_4283/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.0.0&request=GetCapabilities
> ";
>
>         Map connectionParameters = new HashMap();
>
> connectionParameters.put("WFSDataStoreFactory:GET_CAPABILITIES_URL",
>                 getCapabilitiesURL);
>         connectionParameters.put("WFSDataStoreFactory:USERNAME",
> wfsUsername);
>         connectionParameters.put("WFSDataStoreFactory:PASSWORD",
> wfsPassword);
>
>         // getCapabilities...
>         DataStore data =
> DataStoreFinder.getDataStore(connectionParameters);
>
>         // describeFeatureType...
>         SimpleFeatureType schema = data.getSchema("slip:ABS-030");
>         String geomName = schema.getGeometryDescriptor().getLocalName();
>
>         // getFeature...
>         SimpleFeatureSource source = data.getFeatureSource("slip:ABS-030");
>         SimpleFeatureCollection features = source.getFeatures();
>         SimpleFeatureIterator iter = features.features();
>
>         // after executing features.feature() above, it throws
>         // WARNING: java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: Server
