I have an iOS app, which is written in the swift programming. Its designed in such a way that it only renders the web based application in the iOS device. If I open that url from firefox then it asks for the username/password. "Restricted Area", a javascript kind of window appears. After I enter login password, I am able to enter into the website.

How could I make this login/password work from mobile app. Because in iOS app, its pointing to this website and how do I supply login/password for it. I solved it in android by using onRecieveAuthRequest an API from Webview, but unable to solve in iOS swift

Below is the code, My class MainViewController.swift is extending UIViewController 

class MainViewController: UIViewController, UIWebViewDelegate, MFMailComposeViewControllerDelegate {

Below is the URL code, I tried to execute but it fails during execution and not the right way to pass username password for the secure server

override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad();

    webView.delegate = self;

    let url = NSURL (string: "http://myUserName:myPassword@http://mysecureTestServer.com/mobile/");
    let requestObj = NSURLRequest(URL: url);
    webView.loadRequest(requestObj);
}

  • Your URL does not appear valid. is mysecureTestServer.com the correct domain? – Siriss May 03 '16 at 15:29
  • myUserName, myPassword and mysecureTestServer.com - None of them are correct parameters, its just an example as I am not allowed to give out original info. I just can replace these parameters with the original. I have just posted a small snippet of the code. If i take out myUserName:myPassword@ from the URL, it works fine for non-secure test server. But I want to know, how to implement authorization login/password for secure test server – Sandra May 03 '16 at 15:39

-(void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView

-(void)webView:(UIWebView *)webView didFailLoadWithError:(NSError *)error

-(void)webViewDidStartLoad:(UIWebView *)webView

But I want to know, how to implement authorization login/password for secure test server. All the above methods are implement. Please note that the nomenclature does not use any star (*) in the code as its in swift. – Sandra May 03 '16 at 15:40
