public abstract class SSLEngine extends Object
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.The secure communications modes include:
- Integrity Protection. SSL/TLS protects against modification of messages by an active wiretapper.
- Authentication. In most modes, SSL/TLS provides peer authentication. Servers are usually authenticated, and clients may be authenticated as requested by servers.
- Confidentiality (Privacy Protection). In most modes, SSL/TLS encrypts data being sent between client and server. This protects the confidentiality of data, so that passive wiretappers won't see sensitive data such as financial information or personal information of many kinds.
The cipher suite used is established by a negotiation process called "handshaking". The goal of this process is to create or rejoin a "session", which may protect many connections over time. After handshaking has completed, you can access session attributes by using the
getSession()
method.The
SSLSocket
class provides much of the same security functionality, but all of the inbound and outbound data is automatically transported using the underlyingSocket
, which by design uses a blocking model. While this is appropriate for many applications, this model does not provide the scalability required by large servers.The primary distinction of an
SSLEngine
is that it operates on inbound and outbound byte streams, independent of the transport mechanism. It is the responsibility of theSSLEngine
user to arrange for reliable I/O transport to the peer. By separating the SSL/TLS abstraction from the I/O transport mechanism, theSSLEngine
can be used for a wide variety of I/O types, such asnon-blocking I/O (polling)
,selectable non-blocking I/O
,Socket
and the traditional Input/OutputStreams, localByteBuffers
or byte arrays, future asynchronous I/O models , and so on.At a high level, the
SSLEngine
appears thus:app data | ^ | | | v | | +----+-----|-----+----+ | | | | SSL|Engine | wrap() | | | unwrap() | OUTBOUND | INBOUND | | | | +----+-----|-----+----+ | | ^ | | | v | net data
Application data (also known as plaintext or cleartext) is data which is produced or consumed by an application. Its counterpart is network data, which consists of either handshaking and/or ciphertext (encrypted) data, and destined to be transported via an I/O mechanism. Inbound data is data which has been received from the peer, and outbound data is destined for the peer.(In the context of an
SSLEngine
, the term "handshake data" is taken to mean any data exchanged to establish and control a secure connection. Handshake data includes the SSL/TLS messages "alert", "change_cipher_spec," and "handshake.")There are five distinct phases to an
SSLEngine
.- Creation - The
SSLEngine
has been created and initialized, but has not yet been used. During this phase, an application may set anySSLEngine
-specific settings (enabled cipher suites, whether theSSLEngine
should handshake in client or server mode, and so on). Once handshaking has begun, though, any new settings (except client/server mode, see below) will be used for the next handshake. - Initial Handshake - The initial handshake is a procedure by which the two peers exchange communication parameters until an SSLSession is established. Application data can not be sent during this phase.
- Application Data - Once the communication parameters have
been established and the handshake is complete, application data
may flow through the
SSLEngine
. Outbound application messages are encrypted and integrity protected, and inbound messages reverse the process. - Rehandshaking - Either side may request a renegotiation of
the session at any time during the Application Data phase. New
handshaking data can be intermixed among the application data.
Before starting the rehandshake phase, the application may
reset the SSL/TLS communication parameters such as the list of
enabled ciphersuites and whether to use client authentication,
but can not change between client/server modes. As before, once
handshaking has begun, any new
SSLEngine
configuration settings will not be used until the next handshake. - Closure - When the connection is no longer needed, the
application should close the
SSLEngine
and should send/receive any remaining messages to the peer before closing the underlying transport mechanism. Once an engine is closed, it is not reusable: a newSSLEngine
must be created.
SSLEngine
is created by callingSSLContext.createSSLEngine()
from an initializedSSLContext
. Any configuration parameters should be set before making the first call towrap()
,unwrap()
, orbeginHandshake()
. These methods all trigger the initial handshake.Data moves through the engine by calling
wrap()
orunwrap()
on outbound or inbound data, respectively. Depending on the state of theSSLEngine
, awrap()
call may consume application data from the source buffer and may produce network data in the destination buffer. The outbound data may contain application and/or handshake data. A call tounwrap()
will examine the source buffer and may advance the handshake if the data is handshaking information, or may place application data in the destination buffer if the data is application. The state of the underlying SSL/TLS algorithm will determine when data is consumed and produced.Calls to
wrap()
andunwrap()
return anSSLEngineResult
which indicates the status of the operation, and (optionally) how to interact with the engine to make progress.The
SSLEngine
produces/consumes complete SSL/TLS packets only, and does not store application data internally between calls towrap()/unwrap()
. Thus input and outputByteBuffer
s must be sized appropriately to hold the maximum record that can be produced. Calls toSSLSession.getPacketBufferSize()
andSSLSession.getApplicationBufferSize()
should be used to determine the appropriate buffer sizes. The size of the outbound application data buffer generally does not matter. If buffer conditions do not allow for the proper consumption/production of data, the application must determine (viaSSLEngineResult
) and correct the problem, and then try the call again.For example,
unwrap()
will return aSSLEngineResult.Status.BUFFER_OVERFLOW
result if the engine determines that there is not enough destination buffer space available. Applications should callSSLSession.getApplicationBufferSize()
and compare that value with the space available in the destination buffer, enlarging the buffer if necessary. Similarly, ifunwrap()
were to return aSSLEngineResult.Status.BUFFER_UNDERFLOW
, the application should callSSLSession.getPacketBufferSize()
to ensure that the source buffer has enough room to hold a record (enlarging if necessary), and then obtain more inbound data.SSLEngineResult r = engine.unwrap(src, dst); switch (r.getStatus()) { BUFFER_OVERFLOW: // Could attempt to drain the dst buffer of any already obtained // data, but we'll just increase it to the size needed. int appSize = engine.getSession().getApplicationBufferSize(); ByteBuffer b = ByteBuffer.allocate(appSize + dst.position()); dst.flip(); b.put(dst); dst = b; // retry the operation. break; BUFFER_UNDERFLOW: int netSize = engine.getSession().getPacketBufferSize(); // Resize buffer if needed. if (netSize > dst.capacity()) { ByteBuffer b = ByteBuffer.allocate(netSize); src.flip(); b.put(src); src = b; } // Obtain more inbound network data for src, // then retry the operation. break; // other cases: CLOSED, OK. }
Unlike
SSLSocket
, all methods of SSLEngine are non-blocking.SSLEngine
implementations may require the results of tasks that may take an extended period of time to complete, or may even block. For example, a TrustManager may need to connect to a remote certificate validation service, or a KeyManager might need to prompt a user to determine which certificate to use as part of client authentication. Additionally, creating cryptographic signatures and verifying them can be slow, seemingly blocking.For any operation which may potentially block, the
SSLEngine
will create aRunnable
delegated task. WhenSSLEngineResult
indicates that a delegated task result is needed, the application must callgetDelegatedTask()
to obtain an outstanding delegated task and call itsrun()
method (possibly using a different thread depending on the compute strategy). The application should continue obtaining delegated tasks until no more exist, and try the original operation again.At the end of a communication session, applications should properly close the SSL/TLS link. The SSL/TLS protocols have closure handshake messages, and these messages should be communicated to the peer before releasing the
SSLEngine
and closing the underlying transport mechanism. A close can be initiated by one of: an SSLException, an inbound closure handshake message, or one of the close methods. In all cases, closure handshake messages are generated by the engine, andwrap()
should be repeatedly called until the resultingSSLEngineResult
's status returns "CLOSED", orisOutboundDone()
returns true. All data obtained from thewrap()
method should be sent to the peer.closeOutbound()
is used to signal the engine that the application will not be sending any more data.A peer will signal its intent to close by sending its own closure handshake message. After this message has been received and processed by the local
SSLEngine
'sunwrap()
call, the application can detect the close by callingunwrap()
and looking for aSSLEngineResult
with status "CLOSED", or ifisInboundDone()
returns true. If for some reason the peer closes the communication link without sending the proper SSL/TLS closure message, the application can detect the end-of-stream and can signal the engine viacloseInbound()
that there will no more inbound messages to process. Some applications might choose to require orderly shutdown messages from a peer, in which case they can check that the closure was generated by a handshake message and not by an end-of-stream condition.There are two groups of cipher suites which you will need to know about when managing cipher suites:
- Supported cipher suites: all the suites which are
supported by the SSL implementation. This list is reported
using
getSupportedCipherSuites()
. - Enabled cipher suites, which may be fewer than
the full set of supported suites. This group is set using the
setEnabledCipherSuites(String [])
method, and queried using thegetEnabledCipherSuites()
method. Initially, a default set of cipher suites will be enabled on a new engine that represents the minimum suggested configuration.
Each SSL/TLS connection must have one client and one server, thus each endpoint must decide which role to assume. This choice determines who begins the handshaking process as well as which type of messages should be sent by each party. The method
setUseClientMode(boolean)
configures the mode. Once the initial handshaking has started, anSSLEngine
can not switch between client and server modes, even when performing renegotiations.Applications might choose to process delegated tasks in different threads. When an
SSLEngine
is created, the currentAccessControlContext
is saved. All future delegated tasks will be processed using this context: that is, all access control decisions will be made using the context captured at engine creation.
Concurrency Notes: There are two concurrency issues to be aware of:- The
wrap()
andunwrap()
methods may execute concurrently of each other. - The SSL/TLS protocols employ ordered packets.
Applications must take care to ensure that generated packets
are delivered in sequence. If packets arrive
out-of-order, unexpected or fatal results may occur.
For example:
synchronized (outboundLock) { sslEngine.wrap(src, dst); outboundQueue.put(dst); }
As a corollary, two threads must not attempt to call the same method (eitherwrap()
orunwrap()
) concurrently, because there is no way to guarantee the eventual packet ordering.

wrap
public abstract SSLEngineResult wrap(ByteBuffer[] srcs, int offset, int length, ByteBuffer dst) throws SSLException
Attempts to encode plaintext bytes from a subsequence of data buffers into SSL/TLS network data. This "gathering" operation encodes, in a single invocation, a sequence of bytes from one or more of a given sequence of buffers. Gathering wraps are often useful when implementing network protocols or file formats that, for example, group data into segments consisting of one or more fixed-length headers followed by a variable-length body. SeeGatheringByteChannel
for more information on gathering, andGatheringByteChannel.write(ByteBuffer[], int, int)
for more information on the subsequence behavior.Depending on the state of the SSLEngine, this method may produce network data without consuming any application data (for example, it may generate handshake data.)
The application is responsible for reliably transporting the network data to the peer, and for ensuring that data created by multiple calls to wrap() is transported in the same order in which it was generated. The application must properly synchronize multiple calls to this method.
If this
SSLEngine
has not yet started its initial handshake, this method will automatically start the handshake.This method will attempt to produce one SSL/TLS packet, and will consume as much source data as possible, but will never consume more than the sum of the bytes remaining in each buffer. Each
ByteBuffer
's position is updated to reflect the amount of data consumed or produced. The limits remain the same.The underlying memory used by the
srcs
anddst ByteBuffer
s must not be the same.See the class description for more information on engine closure.
- Parameters:
srcs
- an array ofByteBuffers
containing the outbound application dataoffset
- The offset within the buffer array of the first buffer from which bytes are to be retrieved; it must be non-negative and no larger thansrcs.length

unwrap
public SSLEngineResult unwrap(ByteBuffer src, ByteBuffer dst) throws SSLException

-
unwrap
public abstract SSLEngineResult unwrap(ByteBuffer src, ByteBuffer[] dsts, int offset, int length) throws SSLException
Attempts to decode SSL/TLS network data into a subsequence of plaintext application data buffers. This "scattering" operation decodes, in a single invocation, a sequence of bytes into one or more of a given sequence of buffers. Scattering unwraps are often useful when implementing network protocols or file formats that, for example, group data into segments consisting of one or more fixed-length headers followed by a variable-length body. SeeScatteringByteChannel
for more information on scattering, andScatteringByteChannel.read(ByteBuffer[], int, int)
for more information on the subsequence behavior.Depending on the state of the SSLEngine, this method may consume network data without producing any application data (for example, it may consume handshake data.)
The application is responsible for reliably obtaining the network data from the peer, and for invoking unwrap() on the data in the order it was received. The application must properly synchronize multiple calls to this method.
If this
SSLEngine
has not yet started its initial handshake, this method will automatically start the handshake.This method will attempt to consume one complete SSL/TLS network packet, but will never consume more than the sum of the bytes remaining in the buffers. Each
ByteBuffer
's position is updated to reflect the amount of data consumed or produced. The limits remain the same.The underlying memory used by the
src
anddsts ByteBuffer
s must not be the same.The inbound network buffer may be modified as a result of this call: therefore if the network data packet is required for some secondary purpose, the data should be duplicated before calling this method. Note: the network data will not be useful to a second SSLEngine, as each SSLEngine contains unique random state which influences the SSL/TLS messages.
See the class description for more information on engine closure.
- Parameters:
src
- aByteBuffer
containing inbound network data.dsts
- an array ofByteBuffer
s to hold inbound application data.offset

getDelegatedTask
public abstract Runnable getDelegatedTask()
Returns a delegatedRunnable
task for thisSSLEngine
.SSLEngine
operations may require the results of operations that block, or may take an extended period of time to complete. This method is used to obtain an outstandingRunnable
operation (task). Each task must be assigned a thread (possibly the current) to perform therun
operation. Once therun
method returns, theRunnable
object is no longer needed and may be discarded.Delegated tasks run in the
AccessControlContext
in place when this object was created.A call to this method will return each outstanding task exactly once.
Multiple delegated tasks can be run in parallel.
- Returns:
- a delegated
Runnable
task, or null if none are available.
-
closeInbound
public abstract void closeInbound() throws SSLException
Signals that no more inbound network data will be sent to thisSSLEngine
.If the application initiated the closing process by calling
closeOutbound()
, under some circumstances it is not required that the initiator wait for the peer's corresponding close message. (See section 7.2.1 of the TLS specification (RFC 2246) for more information on waiting for closure alerts.) In such cases, this method need not be called.But if the application did not initiate the closure process, or if the circumstances above do not apply, this method should be called whenever the end of the SSL/TLS data stream is reached. This ensures closure of the inbound side, and checks that the peer followed the SSL/TLS close procedure properly, thus detecting possible truncation attacks.
This method is idempotent: if the inbound side has already been closed, this method does not do anything.
wrap()
should be called to flush any remaining handshake data.- Throws:
SSLException
- if this engine has not received the proper SSL/TLS close notification message from the peer.- See Also:
isInboundDone()
,isOutboundDone()
-
isInboundDone
public abstract boolean isInboundDone()
Returns whetherunwrap(ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer)
will accept any more inbound data messages.- Returns:
- true if the
SSLEngine
will not consume anymore network data (and by implication, will not produce any more application data.) - See Also:
closeInbound()
-
closeOutbound
public abstract void closeOutbound()
Signals that no more outbound application data will be sent on thisSSLEngine
.This method is idempotent: if the outbound side has already been closed, this method does not do anything.
wrap(ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer)
should be called to flush any remaining handshake data.- See Also:
isOutboundDone()
-
isOutboundDone
public abstract boolean isOutboundDone()
Returns whetherwrap(ByteBuffer, ByteBuffer)
will produce any more outbound data messages.Note that during the closure phase, a
SSLEngine
may generate handshake closure data that must be sent to the peer.wrap()
must be called to generate this data. When this method returns true, no more outbound data will be created.- Returns:
- true if the
SSLEngine
will not produce any more network data - See Also:
closeOutbound()
,closeInbound()
-
getSupportedCipherSuites
public abstract String[] getSupportedCipherSuites()
Returns the names of the cipher suites which could be enabled for use on this engine. Normally, only a subset of these will actually be enabled by default, since this list may include cipher suites which do not meet quality of service requirements for those defaults. Such cipher suites might be useful in specialized applications.- Returns:
- an array of cipher suite names
- See Also:
getEnabledCipherSuites()
,setEnabledCipherSuites(String [])
-
getEnabledCipherSuites
public abstract String[] getEnabledCipherSuites()
Returns the names of the SSL cipher suites which are currently enabled for use on this engine. When an SSLEngine is first created, all enabled cipher suites support a minimum quality of service. Thus, in some environments this value might be empty.Even if a suite has been enabled, it might never be used. (For example, the peer does not support it, the requisite certificates/private keys for the suite are not available, or an anonymous suite is enabled but authentication is required.)
- Returns:
- an array of cipher suite names
- See Also:
getSupportedCipherSuites()
,setEnabledCipherSuites(String [])
-
setEnabledCipherSuites
public abstract void setEnabledCipherSuites(String[] suites)
Sets the cipher suites enabled for use on this engine.Each cipher suite in the
suites
parameter must have been listed by getSupportedCipherSuites(), or the method will fail. Following a successful call to this method, only suites listed in thesuites
parameter are enabled for use.See
getEnabledCipherSuites()
for more information on why a specific cipher suite may never be used on a engine.- Parameters:
suites
- Names of all the cipher suites to enable- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- when one or more of the ciphers named by the parameter is not supported, or when the parameter is null.- See Also:

getSupportedProtocols
public abstract String[] getSupportedProtocols()
Returns the names of the protocols which could be enabled for use with thisSSLEngine
.- Returns:
- an array of protocols supported
-
getEnabledProtocols
public abstract String[] getEnabledProtocols()
Returns the names of the protocol versions which are currently enabled for use with thisSSLEngine
.- Returns:
- an array of protocols
- See Also:
setEnabledProtocols(String [])
-
setEnabledProtocols
public abstract void setEnabledProtocols(String[] protocols)
Set the protocol versions enabled for use on this engine.The protocols must have been listed by getSupportedProtocols() as being supported. Following a successful call to this method, only protocols listed in the
protocols
parameter are enabled for use.- Parameters:
protocols
- Names of all the protocols to enable.- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- when one or more of the protocols named by the parameter is not supported or when the protocols parameter is null.- See Also:
getEnabledProtocols()
-
getSession
public abstract SSLSession getSession()
Returns theSSLSession
in use in thisSSLEngine
.These can be long lived, and frequently correspond to an entire login session for some user. The session specifies a particular cipher suite which is being actively used by all connections in that session, as well as the identities of the session's client and server.
Unlike
SSLSocket.getSession()
this method does not block until handshaking is complete.Until the initial handshake has completed, this method returns a session object which reports an invalid cipher suite of "SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL".
- Returns:
- the
SSLSession
for thisSSLEngine
- See Also:
SSLSession
-
getHandshakeSession
public SSLSession getHandshakeSession()
Returns theSSLSession
being constructed during a SSL/TLS handshake.TLS protocols may negotiate parameters that are needed when using an instance of this class, but before the
SSLSession
has been completely initialized and made available viagetSession
. For example, the list of valid signature algorithms may restrict the type of certificates that can used during TrustManager decisions, or the maximum TLS fragment packet sizes can be resized to better support the network environment.This method provides early access to the
SSLSession
being constructed. Depending on how far the handshake has progressed, some data may not yet be available for use. For example, if a remote server will be sending a Certificate chain, but that chain has yet not been processed, thegetPeerCertificates
method ofSSLSession
will throw a SSLPeerUnverifiedException. Once that chain has been processed,getPeerCertificates
will return the proper value.- Returns:
- null if this instance is not currently handshaking, or
if the current handshake has not progressed far enough to
create a basic SSLSession. Otherwise, this method returns the
SSLSession
currently being negotiated. - Throws:
UnsupportedOperationException
- if the underlying provider does not implement the operation.- Since:
- 1.7

beginHandshake
public abstract void beginHandshake() throws SSLException
Initiates handshaking (initial or renegotiation) on this SSLEngine.This method is not needed for the initial handshake, as the
wrap()
andunwrap()
methods will implicitly call this method if handshaking has not already begun.Note that the peer may also request a session renegotiation with this
SSLEngine
by sending the appropriate session renegotiate handshake message.Unlike the
SSLSocket#startHandshake()
method, this method does not block until handshaking is completed.To force a complete SSL/TLS session renegotiation, the current session should be invalidated prior to calling this method.
Some protocols may not support multiple handshakes on an existing engine and may throw an
SSLException
.- Throws:
SSLException
- if a problem was encountered while signaling theSSLEngine
to begin a new handshake. See the class description for more information on engine closure.IllegalStateException
- if the client/server mode has not yet been set.- See Also:
SSLSession.invalidate()
-
getHandshakeStatus
public abstract SSLEngineResult.HandshakeStatus getHandshakeStatus()
Returns the current handshake status for thisSSLEngine
.- Returns:
- the current
SSLEngineResult.HandshakeStatus
.
-
setUseClientMode
public abstract void setUseClientMode(boolean mode)
Configures the engine to use client (or server) mode when handshaking.This method must be called before any handshaking occurs. Once handshaking has begun, the mode can not be reset for the life of this engine.
Servers normally authenticate themselves, and clients are not required to do so.
- Parameters:
mode
- true if the engine should start its handshaking in "client" mode- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if a mode change is attempted after the initial handshake has begun.- See Also:
getUseClientMode()
-
getUseClientMode
public abstract boolean getUseClientMode()
Returns true if the engine is set to use client mode when handshaking.- Returns:
- true if the engine should do handshaking in "client" mode
- See Also:
setUseClientMode(boolean)
-
setNeedClientAuth
public abstract void setNeedClientAuth(boolean need)
Configures the engine to require client authentication. This option is only useful for engines in the server mode.An engine's client authentication setting is one of the following:
- client authentication required
- client authentication requested
- no client authentication desired
Unlike
setWantClientAuth(boolean)
, if this option is set and the client chooses not to provide authentication information about itself, the negotiations will stop and the engine will begin its closure procedure.Calling this method overrides any previous setting made by this method or
setWantClientAuth(boolean)
.- Parameters:
need
- set to true if client authentication is required, or false if no client authentication is desired.- See Also:
getNeedClientAuth()
,setWantClientAuth(boolean)
,getWantClientAuth()
,setUseClientMode(boolean)
-
getNeedClientAuth
public abstract boolean getNeedClientAuth()
Returns true if the engine will require client authentication. This option is only useful to engines in the server mode.- Returns:
- true if client authentication is required, or false if no client authentication is desired.
- See Also:
setNeedClientAuth(boolean)
,setWantClientAuth(boolean)
,getWantClientAuth()
,setUseClientMode(boolean)
-
setWantClientAuth
public abstract void setWantClientAuth(boolean want)
Configures the engine to request client authentication. This option is only useful for engines in the server mode.An engine's client authentication setting is one of the following:
- client authentication required
- client authentication requested
- no client authentication desired
Unlike
setNeedClientAuth(boolean)
, if this option is set and the client chooses not to provide authentication information about itself, the negotiations will continue.Calling this method overrides any previous setting made by this method or
setNeedClientAuth(boolean)
.- Parameters:
want
- set to true if client authentication is requested, or false if no client authentication is desired.- See Also:
getWantClientAuth()
,setNeedClientAuth(boolean)
,getNeedClientAuth()
,setUseClientMode(boolean)
-
getWantClientAuth
public abstract boolean getWantClientAuth()
Returns true if the engine will request client authentication. This option is only useful for engines in the server mode.- Returns:
- true if client authentication is requested, or false if no client authentication is desired.
- See Also:
setNeedClientAuth(boolean)
,getNeedClientAuth()
,setWantClientAuth(boolean)
,setUseClientMode(boolean)
-
setEnableSessionCreation
public abstract void setEnableSessionCreation(boolean flag)
Controls whether new SSL sessions may be established by this engine. If session creations are not allowed, and there are no existing sessions to resume, there will be no successful handshaking.- Parameters:
flag
- true indicates that sessions may be created; this is the default. false indicates that an existing session must be resumed- See Also:
getEnableSessionCreation()
-
getEnableSessionCreation
public abstract boolean getEnableSessionCreation()
Returns true if new SSL sessions may be established by this engine.- Returns:
- true indicates that sessions may be created; this is the default. false indicates that an existing session must be resumed
- See Also:
setEnableSessionCreation(boolean)
-
getSSLParameters
public SSLParameters getSSLParameters()
Returns the SSLParameters in effect for this SSLEngine. The ciphersuites and protocols of the returned SSLParameters are always non-null.- Returns:
- the SSLParameters in effect for this SSLEngine.
- Since:
- 1.6
-
setSSLParameters
public void setSSLParameters(SSLParameters params)
Applies SSLParameters to this engine.This means:
- if
params.getCipherSuites()
is non-null,setEnabledCipherSuites()
is called with that value - if
params.getProtocols()
is non-null,setEnabledProtocols()
is called with that value - if
params.getNeedClientAuth()
orparams.getWantClientAuth()
returntrue
,setNeedClientAuth(true)
andsetWantClientAuth(true)
are called, respectively; otherwisesetWantClientAuth(false)
is called.
- Parameters:
params
- the parameters- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if the setEnabledCipherSuites() or the setEnabledProtocols() call fails- Since:
- 1.6
- if
