Luca,
If you just want to use Https to secure the communication between the
client browser and your server, all you have to do is install a SSL
certificate on your server. You do not need to use the javax.net.ssl
classes at all. The server will handle the SSL handshake for you and
decrypt and encrypt the data coming in from the browser. If for some
reason, you need to have your servlet act as a client that connects to
another system using SSL, then you will need to use the javax.net.ssl classes.
What is the architecture of your system? What server are you using?

Regards,

Richard
