EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory can be used to creats SSL Sockets that accept self-signed certificates.

This socket factory SHOULD NOT be used for productive systems due to security reasons, unless it is a concious decision and you are perfectly aware of security implications of accepting self-signed certificates

Example of using custom protocol socket factory for a specific host:

    Protocol easyhttps = new Protocol("https", new EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory(), 443);
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    client.getHostConfiguration().setHost("localhost", 443, easyhttps);
    // use relative url only
    GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("/");
    client.executeMethod(httpget);
    

Example of using custom protocol socket factory per default instead of the standard one:

    Protocol easyhttps = new Protocol("https", new EasySSLProtocolSocketFactory(), 443);
    Protocol.registerProtocol("https", easyhttps);
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("https://localhost/");
    client.executeMethod(httpget);

Attempts to get a new socket connection to the given host within the given time limit.

To circumvent the limitations of older JREs that do not support connect timeout a controller thread is executed. The controller thread attempts to create a new socket within the given limit of time. If socket constructor does not return until the timeout expires, the controller terminates and throws an ConnectTimeoutException

Params:
  • host – the host name/IP
  • port – the port on the host
  • clientHost – the local host name/IP to bind the socket to
  • clientPort – the port on the local machine
  • params – Http connection parameters
Throws:
Returns:Socket a new socket
