RE: Problem with SSL Certificate
Hi Adrian
Have you even had a chance to complete that simple TrustManager of
yours?. Currently I need to be able to access my local web server that
is using self-signed certificate for SSL transactions. It's a bit
unfortunate that I may end up reinventing the wheel.
Cheers
Oleg

I've been doing the same. I found it easier to just import the
self-signed cert into my JRE. Let me know if you need some examples.
