23  * This class was designed with the simple assumption that ALL authentication
24  * implementations will have a String <code>Name</code> and a String
25  * <code>Password</code>. Two abstract functions <code>validateName</code> and
26  * <code>validatePassword</code> provide for concrete implementations to
27  * perform character validation. All the work is then done in the
28  * <code>configure</code> abstract function. In the
29  * <code>BasicAuthentication</code> class, for example, the configuring is done
30  * by adding the request property "Authorization" with a value
31  * "Basic &lt;base64encode of 'userid:password'&gt;".
