Method Detail

createSocket

public static Socket createSocket(String host,
                                  int port)
                           throws IOException

Create a normal SSL socket.

createProxySocket

public static Socket createProxySocket(String host,
                                       int port,
                                       String proxyHost,
                                       int proxyPort)
                                throws IOException

Create a SSL socket tunnelled through another.

IOException

getSSLSocketFactory

public static javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory getSSLSocketFactory()
                                                          throws IOException

Initializes an SSLSocketFactory which ignores most Certificate validation. Very useful for development environment, where people don't purchase certificates, but instead use self-signed ones.
