httpcomponents for https without CE

private static class DefaultTrustManager implements X509TrustManager{  // concept from http://hc.apache.org/index.html  @Override  public void checkClientTrusted(X509Certificate[] arg0, String arg1)                throws CertificateException { // do nothing here }  @Override  public void checkServerTrusted(X509Certificate[] arg0, String arg1)                throws CertificateException { // do nothing here }  @Override  public X509Certificate[] getAcceptedIssuers() {    return null;  }}

Then, initialize the custom trust manager, and allow any SSL connection, regardless of its validity. We are in control of the connection here and so we don’t have anything to hide:

import java.io.*;import import org.apache.http.*;import javax.net.ssl.*;import java.security.cert*;public void SSLImgPost(String imgurl, String fileloc) throws Exception {  if (fileloc.length() < 1)  {    System.out.println("File path not given");  }  TrustManager[] trustAllCerts = new TrustManager[] { new DefaultTrustManager() };  SSLContext sc = SSLContext.getInstance("TLS");  sc.init(null, trustAllCerts, new java.security.SecureRandom());

Then, tell the SSL socket factory to nuder the SSL certificate hostname verifier :

SSLSocketFactory sf = new SSLSocketFactory( sc, SSLSocketFactory.ALLOW_ALL_HOSTNAME_VERIFIER);  Scheme sch = new Scheme("https", 443, sf);  httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();  // httpclient is a static reference  httpclient.getConnectionManager().getSchemeRegistry().register(sch);

Then, follow through with reading in the file and sending it to the server with a POST:

HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(imgurl);  File file = new File(fileloc);  InputStreamEntity reqEntity = new InputStreamEntity(new FileInputStream(file), -1);  try {    reqEntity.setContentType("binary/octet-stream");    reqEntity.setChunked(true);    httppost.setEntity(reqEntity);    System.out.println("Executing post IMG upload " + httppost.getRequestLine());    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);    HttpEntity resEntity = response.getEntity();    System.out.println("----------------------------------------");    System.out.println(response.getStatusLine());    if (resEntity != null) {      System.out.println("Response content length: " + resEntity.getContentLength());      System.out.println("Chunked?: " + resEntity.isChunked());    }    EntityUtils.consume(resEntity);    } finally {      httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown();    }}
