Method Detail

endorseRequest

boolean endorseRequest(HttpURLConnection conn)
                       throws MiniAuthException,
                              IOException

"Signs" or "endorses" the request. In the context of 2LO OAuth, this method should be really called signRequest(). However, we (plan to) use this for other auth schemes, hence we use a more generic (but somewhat unusual name), "endorse".

Parameters:

conn - URLConnection. conn is an "in-out" param.

Returns:

true if "endorsing" is successful.

Throws:

MiniAuthException

IOException
