SSL and BasicAuth Example

["Alden, John" <Jo...@LibertyMutual.com>]

I am looking to use the http-client because of its ability to set a
timeout parameter. Can someone share an example of using http-client
with SSL and Basic Authorization? I was unable to find such an example
on the Jakarta site.

Thanks in advance.
John

Ah I get it. I wasn't aware of that. I can change this.

Agreed.  The part I believe that is not required (in 1.3.1 or 1.4) is 
the setting of the "java.protocol.handler.pkgs" property.  This property 
is only used by the default URLStreamHandlerFactory to handle URLs with 
the protocol of "https".

... whose implementation is provided by JSSE.

With JDK 1.4 however JSSE is already part of the distribution.

You're welcome.

I noticed the following line in the class documentation:

	You need to have JSSE on your classpath and set the System property 
java.protocol.handler.pkgs=com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol

With the current Protocol configuration JSSE does need to be on the 
classpath but the "java.protocol.handler.pkgs" property does not been 
to be set.  The default HTTPS protocol class uses the 
SSLSocketFactorydirectly.
