Roger Leigh commented on XERCESC-2220:
--------------------------------------
[~and...@avenza.com] The reason this hasn't been remedied is that no one has
cared sufficiently about it to develop and submit a fix for it. If someone
wishes to do so, I'll be more than happy to review and test it.
As for how to satisfy {{find_package(curl)}}, you need to make sure the CURL
installation is on your {{CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH}} so that it can be searched for
and found successfully. One way to do this is to use _vcpkg _and its toolchain
file, and all of the third-party dependencies can be trivially built and used.
> Winsock Network Accessor does not support https URLs

> Project: Xerces-C++
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 3.2.3
> Environment: Windows 10
> MinGW 7.3.0 64-bit
> Reporter: Florian Meinicke
> Priority: Major
>
> According to [a

> only the curl and winsock network accessors support https URLs.
> While I got everything working on Linux using the curl accessor I cannot do
> so on Windows. I'm still getting the "unsupported protocol in URL" error even
> though I'm using the winsock accessor.
> The problem appears to be that https has been deliberately disabled for the
> winsock accessor:
> Taken from {{src/xercesc/util/NetAccessors/WinSock/WinSockNetAccessor.cpp}}:
> {code:cpp}
> BinInputStream* WinSockNetAccessor::makeNew(const XMLURL& urlSource, const
> XMLNetHTTPInfo* httpInfo /*=0*/)
> {
> XMLURL::Protocols protocol = urlSource.getProtocol();
> switch(protocol)
> {
> case XMLURL::HTTP:
> {
> BinHTTPURLInputStream* retStrm =
> new (urlSource.getMemoryManager())
> BinHTTPURLInputStream(urlSource, httpInfo);
> return retStrm;
> break;
> }
> //
> // These are the only protocols we support now. So throw and
> // unsupported protocol exception for the others.
> //
> default :
> ThrowXMLwithMemMgr(MalformedURLException,
> XMLExcepts::URL_UnsupportedProto, urlSource.getMemoryManager());
> break;
> }
> return 0;
> }
> {code}
> My understanding is that the winsock accessor should support https URLs so
> the question is why is https being disabled in {{WinSockNetAccessor}}?
