Self-signed certs and a replacement for EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory

Hi,

For testing in stage environment, I'm using EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory to create an SSL Socket that accept self-signed certificates. But HttpClient 3.1 docs say that this method is deprecated. Is there a replacement class (either in HttpClient 3.1 or 4.0) that achieves the same goal?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Will

Thanks, Olivier. That info will be useful for when we move to HttpClient 4.0.

I was wrong about the EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory being deprecated (HttpClient 3.1)... the deprecated member is actually the Protocol constructor that takes a SecureProtocolSocketFactory. The other constructor is not deprecated, so I just performed the appropriate cast:

Protocol easyhttps = new Protocol("https", (ProtocolSocketFactory)new EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory(), 443);
Protocol.registerProtocol("https", easyhttps);

That seems to be the way to do it in v3.1...

Cheers,
Will

Hi,
You can have a look at the continuum code which do this with httpclient 4.x. [1]
Line with comment :
        // https scheme
        schemeRegistry.register( new Scheme( "https", new
EasySSLSocketFactory(), 443 ) );

HTH,
