Avro + SSL ?

Does anyone know how to use Avro RPC along with SSL? This is for C# clients
and servers and we're using the HEAD from SVN (since 1.7.6 is away but the
HEAD has RPC support in the C# tree).

 

I was thinking we'd need to use the SSLStream class from the BCL but wasn't
sure.

Thanks

The current C# implementation only has a SocketTransceiver
implementation, which does not support secure connections.  If you
want to interoperate with Java and other implementations, then we
should probably implement an HttpTransceiver for C# and use HTTPS.
This should be straightforward to implement using C#'s standard
HttpWebRequest.
