[xep-support] Is XEP using HttpsURLConnection when resolving images thru https ?

[Alexander Peshkov]

Hello Christian,

XEP relies on standard Java means for URL processing. This means that
if necessary you can create custom protocol handler, put your own code
inside and register it in Java. I haven't tested it but I think in
your case it will make sense to extend HttpsURLConnection and make
your own class that encapsulates proper initialization.

Best regards,

CK> Hello

CK> I have an environment where images are located on a application server which
CK> can be accessed by https and a client certificate only.
CK> e.g. url(https://host:port/...)

CK> In my own code I connect in this way:

CK> HttpsURLConnection uc = (HttpsURLConnection)url.openConnection();
CK> uc.setSSLSocketFactory( sslContext.getSocketFactory() );
CK> uc.connect();
CK> uc.getInputStream();
CK> ...

CK> Where sslContext is an instance of javax.net.ssl.SSLContex initializing the
CK> neccessary providers, keymanagers, keystores, etc.

CK> Is it possible to set the SSLSocketFactory anywhere in xep ?

CK> Thanks in advance
CK> Christian Kriebel
