Login prompt whith Auth

Hello, 

I have a question I can't solve.

When a user is not logged in and tries to access an action needing loading, he is redirected to my login page. That's normal.

But, for my API, I use Basic Auth, but I want that if a user is not logged in, he is prompted with a message like "This action requires authentication" instead of displaying the loggin page. How can I achieve this ?

This is my app controller code, in the beforeFilter function to see if it's an api request :

$url = Router::parse(Router::url()); // parse the url

$type = $url['action']; // check if it's API or not

if ($type == 'api') { // if API, use basic auth

$this->Auth->authenticate = array('Basic');

}

Thanks a lot for your time !
