java - OData4j query using basic authentication -

first, let me start saying have got absolutely nothing working odata4j.

i building android app (using eclipse) needs consume odata web service, have ipad app work fine think it's safe the web services ok.

all of web requests require basic authentication work, , able make calls using browser confirm url , credentials using valid.

so far have code:

odataconsumer.builder builder = odataconsumers.newbuilder(url); builder.setclientbehaviors(new basicauthenticationbehavior(loginusername, loginpassword));       odataconsumer c = builder.build();  for(oentity entity : c.getentities("entry").execute()){     system.out.println(entity.getproperty("name").getvalue().tostring()); } 

currently, eclipse debugger fails on for line, presumable during .execute() call. debugger 0 me, line looks half-relevant in logcat is:

edit: after @johnspurlock's answer, got little further. same problem overall, new error message:

badrequestexception: request uri not valid. since segment 'documents' refers collection, must last seqment in request url. intermediate segments must refer single resource.

there other messages threading - worth noting method being called within asynctask, seem common have threading errors when breaks within asynctask.

a censored , shortened version of xml result (via browser) looks this:

<feed xml:base="http://a.example.com/odata.svc/"      xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices"      xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata"      xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/atom">     <entry>         <name>one</name>     </entry>     <entry>         <name>two</name>     </entry> </feed> 

i have worked out solution.

firstly, john spurlock getting me step in right direction, needed first include correct internet permission in manifest file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.internet" /> 

then comes problem of querying, problem down lack of understand out how odata structured , queried. when creating odataconsumer passing full url query, needed pass base .svc path.

so rather this:

odataconsumer.builder builder = odataconsumers.newbuilder("http://a.example.com/odata.svc/documents"); 

i did this:

odataconsumer.builder builder = odataconsumers.newbuilder("http://a.example.com/odata.svc"); 

you specify documents part when querying entites:

for(oentity entity : c.getentities("documents").execute().tolist()){  } 

my original xml cut down, , contains properties elements. @ first thought feed , entry elements entities on own had problem when trying query them, infact part of odata magic , seem standard defined elements, these handled automatically odata4j.

each property can queried so:

string myproperty = entity.getproperty("myproperty").getvalue().tostring();
