It's just a code snippet from one of my servlets.. It works fine...
Mvgr,

Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs","com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ww
w.protocol");
String url = "https://<servername>";
// let's connect to the url
InputStream is = null;
dbg.writeln("Status : PAY"+status);
int maxretries = Integer.parseInt(tdps.get("PAY-"+status,"maxretries"));
is = letsconnect(is, urltosend.toString());
maxretries-=1;
while ( is == null) {
if (maxretries==0) {
System.out.println("Error: Unable to connect");
resp.sendRedirect(tdoffline);
return;
}else{
// a small brake for a couple of second could be nice
dbg.writeln("attempting to get something from td");
is = letsconnect(is, urltosend.toString());
maxretries-=1;
}
}
while(is.available() == 0) {};
byte[] b = new byte[is.available()];
is.read(b);
String bs = new String(b);
dbg.writeln("Open returned : "+ bs);
return;
}
public InputStream letsconnect(InputStream is,String urltosend) throws
IOException {
try {
is = new URL(urltosend.toString()).openConnection().getInputStream();
}
catch (IOException e) {
dbg.writeln("Error : creating new connection "+String.valueOf(e));
}
return is;
