Module java.base

Package javax.net.ssl

Provides classes for the secure socket package. Using the secure socket classes, you can communicate using SSL or a related security protocol to reliably detect any errors introduced into the network byte stream and to optionally encrypt the data and/or authenticate the communicating peers.

  • Interface Summary 
    Interface Description
    HandshakeCompletedListener
    This interface is implemented by any class which wants to receive notifications about the completion of an SSL protocol handshake on a given SSL connection.
    HostnameVerifier
    This class is the base interface for hostname verification.
    KeyManager
    This is the base interface for JSSE key managers.
    ManagerFactoryParameters
    This class is the base interface for providing algorithm-specific information to a KeyManagerFactory or TrustManagerFactory.
    SSLSession
    In SSL, sessions are used to describe an ongoing relationship between two entities.
    SSLSessionBindingListener
    This interface is implemented by objects which want to know when they are being bound or unbound from a SSLSession.
    SSLSessionContext
    A SSLSessionContext represents a set of SSLSessions associated with a single entity.
    TrustManager
    This is the base interface for JSSE trust managers.
    X509KeyManager
    Instances of this interface manage which X509 certificate-based key pairs are used to authenticate the local side of a secure socket.
    X509TrustManager
    Instance of this interface manage which X509 certificates may be used to authenticate the remote side of a secure socket.
  • Class Summary 
    Class Description
    CertPathTrustManagerParameters
    A wrapper for CertPathParameters.
    ExtendedSSLSession
    Extends the SSLSession interface to support additional session attributes.
    HandshakeCompletedEvent
    This event indicates that an SSL handshake completed on a given SSL connection.
    HttpsURLConnection
    HttpsURLConnection extends HttpURLConnection with support for https-specific features.
    KeyManagerFactory
    This class acts as a factory for key managers based on a source of key material.
    KeyManagerFactorySpi
    This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the KeyManagerFactory class.
    KeyStoreBuilderParameters
    A parameters object for X509KeyManagers that encapsulates a List of KeyStore.Builders.
    SNIHostName
    Instances of this class represent a server name of type host_name in a Server Name Indication (SNI) extension.
    SNIMatcher
    Instances of this class represent a matcher that performs match operations on an SNIServerName instance.
    SNIServerName
    Instances of this class represent a server name in a Server Name Indication (SNI) extension.
    SSLContext
    Instances of this class represent a secure socket protocol implementation which acts as a factory for secure socket factories or SSLEngines.
    SSLContextSpi
    This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the SSLContext class.
    SSLEngine
    A class which enables secure communications using protocols such as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or IETF RFC 2246 "Transport Layer Security" (TLS) protocols, but is transport independent.
    SSLEngineResult
    An encapsulation of the result state produced by SSLEngine I/O calls.
    SSLParameters
    Encapsulates parameters for an SSL/TLS/DTLS connection.
    SSLPermission
    This class is for various network permissions.
    SSLServerSocket
    This class extends ServerSocket and provides secure server sockets using protocols such as the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols.
    SSLServerSocketFactory
    SSLServerSocketFactorys create SSLServerSockets.
    SSLSessionBindingEvent
    This event is propagated to a SSLSessionBindingListener.
    SSLSocket
    This class extends Socket and provides secure sockets using protocols such as the "Secure Sockets Layer" (SSL) or IETF "Transport Layer Security" (TLS) protocols.
    SSLSocketFactory
    SSLSocketFactorys create SSLSockets.
    StandardConstants
    Standard constants definitions
    TrustManagerFactory
    This class acts as a factory for trust managers based on a source of trust material.
    TrustManagerFactorySpi
    This class defines the Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the TrustManagerFactory class.
    X509ExtendedKeyManager
    Abstract class that provides for extension of the X509KeyManager interface.
    X509ExtendedTrustManager
    Extensions to the X509TrustManager interface to support SSL/TLS/DTLS connection sensitive trust management.
  • Enum Summary 
    Enum Description
    SSLEngineResult.HandshakeStatus
    An SSLEngineResult enum describing the current handshaking state of this SSLEngine.
    SSLEngineResult.Status
    An SSLEngineResult enum describing the overall result of the SSLEngine operation.
  • Exception Summary 
    Exception Description
    SSLException
    Indicates some kind of error detected by an SSL subsystem.
    SSLHandshakeException
    Indicates that the client and server could not negotiate the desired level of security.
    SSLKeyException
    Reports a bad SSL key.
    SSLPeerUnverifiedException
    Indicates that the peer's identity has not been verified.
    SSLProtocolException
    Reports an error in the operation of the SSL protocol.
