BasicAuthentication (Parent for the Google HTTP Client Library for Java 1.22.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.google.api.client.http.BasicAuthentication

All Implemented Interfaces:

HttpExecuteInterceptor, HttpRequestInitializer
```
public final class BasicAuthentication
extends Object
implements HttpRequestInitializer, HttpExecuteInterceptor
```
Basic authentication HTTP request initializer as specified in Basic Authentication Scheme
Implementation is immutable and thread-safe. It can be used as either an HTTP request initializer or an HTTP request execute interceptor. initialize(HttpRequest) only sets itself as the interceptor. Authentication is actually done in intercept(HttpRequest), which is implemented using HttpHeaders.setBasicAuthentication(String, String).
