Robbie Gemmell commented on QPID-4468:
--------------------------------------
I did consider doing it that way, but it was looking a little messy (the
ConnectionSettings cant convey a lack of SSL option, so you then need to start
looking at the BrokerDetails object as well, or switch ConnectionSettings to a
Boolean to allow conveying null and add a Boolean getter instead of the boolean
isUseSSL) and as you say it smacks of misconfiguration a little (I also
considered throwing an Exception because of that). As its not really intended
to be used together with the brokerlist option, but rather instead of it, in
the end I decided just to document the overriding nature and leave it at that.
> [Java client] restore ability to enable SSL using a connection level option
> rather than as a sub-option of each brokerlist entry

> Components: Java Client
> Affects Versions: 0.6, 0.8, 0.10, 0.12, 0.14, 0.16, 0.18

>
> On old client versions it was possible to specify that SSL should be used at
> the connection level options. It is now only possible to specify this as part
> of the brokerlist sub-options (in addition to much finer-grained control over
> the keystores/truststores and certificates etc to be used). If you are just
> using the SSL system properties to define they keystore/truststore etc and
> have multiple brokers in the brokerlist it is actually more convenient to
> specify ssl=true at the connection level.
> Restoring this will maintain compatibility for drop-in replacement of old
> clients and also help prevent user confiusion resulting from the URL parsers
> inability to alert them to the previous ssl configuration going unused.
> It will be restored as an ovveride of ssl option in the brokerlist entries.
