I my android application am using SSL for client authentication and I am using BKS format keystore and MyHttpClient class looks as below,
public class MyHttpClient extends DefaultHttpClient {
final Context context;
public MyHttpClient(Context context) {
this.context = context;
}
@Override
protected ClientConnectionManager createClientConnectionManager() {
SchemeRegistry registry = new SchemeRegistry();
registry.register(new Scheme("http", PlainSocketFactory.getSocketFactory(), 80));
// Register for port 443 our SSLSocketFactory with our keystore
// to the ConnectionManager
registry.register(new Scheme("https", newSslSocketFactory(), 443));
return new SingleClientConnManager(getParams(), registry);
}
private SSLSocketFactory newSslSocketFactory() {
try {
// Get an instance of the Bouncy Castle KeyStore format
KeyStore trusted = KeyStore.getInstance("BKS");
// Get the raw resource, which contains the keystore with
// your trusted certificates (root and any intermediate certs)
InputStream in = context.getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.mykeys);
try {
// Initialize the keystore with the provided trusted certificates
// Also provide the password of the keystore
trusted.load(in, "mypassword".toCharArray());
} finally {
in.close();
}
// Pass the keystore to the SSLSocketFactory. The factory is responsible
// for the verification of the server certificate.
SSLSocketFactory sf = new SSLSocketFactory(trusted);
// Hostname verification from certificate
// http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/connmgmt.html#d4e506
sf.setHostnameVerifier(SSLSocketFactory.STRICT_HOSTNAME_VERIFIER);
return sf;
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new AssertionError(e);
}
}
}
When I run the app, I don't get any run time error on eclipse but am not getting any value from the server. But the same code works for http authentication.
