HostConfiguration socketFactory is ignored
------------------------------------------
Key: HTTPCLIENT-634
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-634
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
Environment: Windows, Eclipse, Java 1.5
Reporter: John Kristian
HostConfiguration doesn't use its host.protocol to execute an HttpMethod with
an absolute URL. It should, if the Protocol's scheme is the same as the
method's URL scheme.
This bug makes it difficult to integrate a specialized SSL connection algorithm
(in a SecureProtocolSocketFactory) with a module implemented on top of
HttpClient. The latter module must not execute methods with absolute URLs. Of
course, this is difficult when one doesn't control that module. For example, I
recently tried to integrate SSL certificate-based client authentication with
XFire. XFire provides a reasonable API for replacing its HttpClient, but one
must hack its source code to prevent it from executing methods with absolute
URLs.
Protocol.registerProtocol is a possible answer, but it can't support two or
more SSL connection algorithms for one HTTPS host and port.
