http basic auth is broken

When returning the challenge response and the 401 status, an exception is triggered.
Exception is triggered because HttpBasicAuthentication::challenge() is called with two params instead of one.

This small patch solved the issue

Generic ForeignKey Problem with Django 1.3 ???

When i run my application with api, my comment model is giving error (from piston/emitters.py in _model, line 174), says that :

AttributeError at /api/comments/

'GenericForeignKey' object has no attribute 'attname'

my model is like this:

from django.db import models
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.contrib.contenttypes.models import ContentType
from django.contrib.contenttypes.generic import GenericForeignKey

class CommentManager(models.Manager):
    def get_by_natural_key(self, username):
    return self.get(username)

class Comment(models.Model):
    owner = models.ForeignKey(User)
    comment = models.CharField(max_length=2000)
    target_object  = GenericForeignKey('ctype', 'oid')
    created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True)

    ctype = models.ForeignKey(ContentType)
    oid = models.PositiveIntegerField()

and my handler is like this :

class CommentHandler(BaseHandler):
    allowed_methods = ("GET",)
    model = Comment

    def read(self, request):
        return Comment.objects.all()

if you want, i can give additional information. Thanks for your response...
