Using HTTPClient, how can I validate certificate fields

843811Feb 26 2004 — edited Jul 22 2004
I am using the apache HttpClient and have been tasked with communicating with a server via SSL to get some data. I have to validate fields in the certificate accordingly. How can I get a handle on the certificate to retrieve these values. The apache HTTPClient is handling the SSL process.

I have coded HttpClient before but am relatively new to SSL but if anyone can at least point me in the right direction it would be a big help.

Thanks!
