我终于找到了一个很好的解决方案(不创建自定义SSL上下文):
String getHttpResponseWithSSL(String url) throws Exception {
//default truststore parameters
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStore", "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/lib/securitycacerts");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword", "changeit");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType", "JKS");
//my certificate and password
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStore", "mycert.pfx");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword", "mypass");
System.setProperty("javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType", "PKCS12");
HttpClient httpclient = new HttpClient();
GetMethod method = new GetMethod();
method.setPath(url);
int statusCode = httpclient.executeMethod(method);
System.out.println("Status: " + statusCode);
method.releaseConnection();
return method.getResponseBodyAsString();
}
