Name

Interface com.sun.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier

Synopsis

Classes that implement this interface can be registered with an HTTPS connection. If the underlying HTTPS socket detects a name mismatch between the server to which it connects and the certificate that the server presents, the verify( ) method will be called to allow the user to accept the connection anyway.

Interface Definition

public interface com.sun.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier {

    // Instance Methods
    public abstract boolean verify(String, String);
}
