Class LdapSSLSocketFactoryDelegate

java.lang.Object
  net.java.sip.communicator.impl.ldap.LdapSSLSocketFactoryDelegate

public class LdapSSLSocketFactoryDelegate
extends Object

Utility class to delegate the creation of sockets to LDAP servers to our CertificateService.

Note that the documentation says to extend SocketFactory, but the LDAP directory context tries to create an unconnected socket without a hostname first by calling createSocket. It would be impossible to validate the hostname against the certificate, which leads to an insecure communication. It only calls createSocket(String, int) when createSocket is not found
