url

I am writing a tomcat app, and have a need to do authentication within the URL like this:

https://user:[email protected]

Except for the life of me i'm not sure how to set it up or able to find the docs to read up on it, clearly my google skills need work.

Can anyone tell me where i should be looking for this kind of info or where to start?

Cheers

Andy
