Append original headers on redirect with ASIHTTPRequest

i'm accessing an API over HTTP and use ASIHTTPRequest. To access the API I have to send additional headers, which i add with the following:

[request addRequestHeader:@"Access-Key" value:@"1234"];

These headers have to be sent with every request. When I get redirected these headers get lost so i'd like to set them again. Is there any possibility to set them again, before the redirect request is beeing performed?

When I implement the - (void)request:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request willRedirectToURL:(NSURL *)newURL Method, the request gets cancelled after this delegate function is called. Is it a bug? I'm using the version v1.8.1-8 2011-06-05.

Thanks for your help!

Solution

I could solve the Problem. IMO the naming of the method is a bit confusing. When you implement - (void)request:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request willRedirectToURL:(NSURL *)newURL the Method is called, but after the request isn't redirected as I asumed. You have to redirect the request by yourself:

- (void)request:(ASIHTTPRequest *)request willRedirectToURL:(NSURL *)newURL {
    // modify request here, e.g. set request headers again...
    [request redirectToURL:newURL];
}

Thanks for reading my question, hope this helps anyone else.
