Setting password on Simulator

I am testing my push app on the MDS simulator but I cant see how to set a username and password on the simulator so that my post will require a username and password.

 

I expected there will be an entry in rimpublic.property but I can't see anything.

 

Thanks for any guidence.

Hi Chris,

 

The MDS-CS simulator does not have support for push authentication, so you would need to test with an actual BES to verify this functionality within your app.

Re: Setting password on Simulator

Thanks Garett,

That's a real pain because I need to install a whole BES just to test this functionality. Anyway thanks for clarifying the issue.

You could also test basic auth on any web server (ex Apache) that has Basic Auth enabled then take the header out for testing Push.
