Hi, I have just been trying to get my httpclient to accept a self signed certificate on a secure, proxied connection. I followed the SSL guide directions but it did not seem to be picking up my new factory.
When I checked in the source code I noticed the following code. HttpConnection.java .... // use the protocol's socket factory unless this is a secure // proxied connection final ProtocolSocketFactory socketFactory = (isSecure() && isProxied() ? new DefaultProtocolSocketFactory() : protocolInUse.getSocketFactory()); .... Why is this restiction in place? regards, John. John Melody SyberNet Ltd. Galway Business Park, Dangan, Galway. Tel. No. +353 91 514400 Fax.
