Java Security, 2nd Edition

Name

Class com.sun.net.ssl.SSLContext

Synopsis

This class is used to affect the context in which an SSL socket is created; in particular, the init( ) method allows you to provide the key and trust managers that will be used to provide and verify the credentials used in the SSL protocol negotiation. The key and trust managers must actually be classes that implement the X509KeyManager and X509TrustManager interfaces (unless you’ve installed a different SSLContext implementation).
