How do i use HHTPS in my project?

Question

Hi Guys, I';m implementing a project that requires HTTPS. Here's the infor : My Client program is a DLL that will send XML request over HTTP to the Server. I'm using VB .NET XMLHTTPRequest object here. Meanwhile a third party developer is accepting my request with Apache & Tomcat Server at the server side. Now i'm totally blind on how to implement HTTPS here, is there an XMLHTTSRequest object, please enlighten me on this, pardon me for my ignorance. thanks a lot guys.

Answer 1

Since HTTPS is supported natively by IE, you should only have to declare "https://www.someurl.com" in the URL parameter of your request.



HTTPS is simply encrypted HTTP over a different port. Otherwise the protocols are identical.

Answer 2

melancholygiant is SORT OF correct. The protocol is the same, but you'll need to implement a certificate on IIS. Or at least generate a self-signed certificate that is trusted by all parties involved. Generally, due to low prices and the amount of work involved in creating a self-signed certificate, most developers will go for a third-party signed cert.



The link below will get you a cert good for https for one year, for $20.
