[Bug classpath/26089] Missing implementation of HostnameVerifier etc.

[csm at gnu dot org]

------- Comment #1 from csm at gnu dot org  2006-02-03 19:32 -------
Confirmed.

The issue here is that something like HostnameVerifier is necessarily
interactive; that is, a correct implementation would (in an interactive
program) pop up a dialog like you see in your web browser, saying that the
hostname being connected to doesn't match the name in the certificate, and
asking whether or not it is OK to connect.

Something like this can be implemented using the `javax.security.auth.callback'
package, and some of the default handler implementations in
`gnu.javax.security.auth.callback.'
