Hi,
there is an official port on
http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.3.x/android-port.html
You "forgot" to give usage instructions for it, as it seems. What needs
to be done for this to work? For example, is it enough to just place the
jar file in the libs dir, and it will automatically use the new 4.3 code
base when using "... = new DefaultHttpClient()" ? Or do I need to
instantiate it the "new way", i.e. using "HttpClients.createDefault()" ?
In that regard, I'm also wondering how to teach the Http-client a custom
certificate chain, given that I'm using a Root CA which isn't known to
all Android devices by default. So far I was able to do that using
Android's old HttpClient implementation, by creating a new
SchemeRegistry and registering a SSLSocketFactory which accepts a
KeyStore reference.
So far I have some code and I believe it is correct, but you're not
providing any examples and there also aren't any on the net:
CloseableHttpClient testClient = null;
SSLContextBuilder builder = new SSLContextBuilder();
KeyStore trusted;
try {
trusted = KeyStore.getInstance("BKS");
InputStream in =
MainActivity.this.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.mykeystorefileWithCertificates);
try {
trusted.load(in, "mobile360".toCharArray());
} finally {
in.close();
}
builder.loadTrustMaterial(trusted);
SSLContext sslContext = builder.build();
SSLConnectionSocketFactory test = new
SSLConnectionSocketFactory(sslContext);
testClient =
HttpClientBuilder.create().setSSLSocketFactory(test).build();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
Maybe some tutorials are in order?
Best regards!
Marius
