If I configure only a user and a password in the authentication configuration of the REST binding, then the IAE " java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Host name may not be null" is thrown during deployment. If I fill the host, everything is ok. However, the REST address already contains this information. It would be great if it will be parsed from the REST address. The same applies for the port. Maybe the host and the port attributes could be completely removed from the configuration - I don't see any purpose of their configuration. It is possible to configure them also for the HTTP binding authentication. In case of removing them in REST, please remove them in HTTP too. These changes would have an influence on the tooling.
It is SWITCHYARD-2218, but I am unable to add external reference.
