Class SSLFactoryBuilder

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.avalon.framework.logger.AbstractLogEnabled
      org.apache.avalon.cornerstone.blocks.sockets.SSLFactoryBuilder

All Implemented Interfaces:

Configurable, Contextualizable, Disposable, Initializable, LogEnabled

public class SSLFactoryBuilder

extends AbstractLogEnabled

implements Configurable, Contextualizable, Disposable, Initializable

Builds SSLContexts with desired properties. Hides all the gory details of SSLContext productions behind nice Avalon interfaces. Married to Sun JCA implementation.

Configuration looks like:

 <ssl-factory>
    <keystore>
      <file>conf/keystore</file> <!-- keystore file location -->
      <password></password> <!-- Key Store file password, only used to check keystore integrity -->
      <key-password></key-password> <!-- Only required when you need to decrypt a private key -->
     <type>JKS</type> <!-- Key Store file format, defaults to JKS -->
     <algorithm>SunX509</algorithm> <!-- Cryptography provider ID, defaults to SunX509 -->
   </keystore>
   <!-- SSL protocol to use, defaults to TLS, another possible value is SSL -->
   <protocol>TLS</protocol>
 </ssl-factory>
 

Notes on keystore files. Absolute paths are supported. Relative paths are interpreted relative to .sar base directory. Defaults to conf/keystore. Since keystore usually contains sensitive keys it maybe beneficial to not include the keystores into the .sar files.

Specified by:

contextualize in interface Contextualizable

Throws:

ContextException

configure

public void configure(Configuration configuration)
               throws ConfigurationException

Specified by:

configure in interface Configurable

Throws:

ConfigurationException

buildSocketFactory

public SSLSocketFactory buildSocketFactory()

Produces a fresh ssl socket factory with configured parameters.

buildServerSocketFactory

public SSLServerSocketFactory buildServerSocketFactory()

Produces a fresh ssl server socket factory with configured parameters.

initialize

public void initialize()
                throws IOException,
                       GeneralSecurityException

Specified by:

initialize in interface Initializable
