Do not use APIs from com.sun.net.ssl packages

The classes and interfaces in the com.sun.net.ssl package are deprecated and replaced by classes and interfaces in the javax.net.ssl package.

The automated fix changes references to the com.sun.net.ssl package to javax.net.ssl . Copy the custom configuration to your application build file to enable the fix automation. The rule will detect fully qualified names in import statements and in the body of the Java code.

For example, code fragments such as

are changed to

The automated fix changes package imports such as

to

After applying the automated fixes for this rule, you may still have a number of changes to make depending on which APIs you use and how you use them. Use the Eclipse Java problem markers to help you work through additional changes needed because of the differences between the com.sun.net.ssl APIs and the javax.net.ssl APIs. Some examples of the differences include:

• javax.net.ssl.KeyManager , javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactory , javax.net.ssl.TrustManager , and javax.net.ssl.TrustManagerFactory added the final Java modifier to some of their methods and can no longer be overridden.
• javax.net.ssl.X509KeyManager changed the parameter types on the methods chooseClientAlias and chooseServerAlias .
• javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactorySpi and javax.net.ssl.TrustManagerFactorySpi removed the engineInit(KeyManagerFactoryParametersSpec arg0) method. Additional methods were added it its place.
• javax.net.ssl.SSLContextSpi removed the engineInit(String arg0, String arg1, String arg2) method. Additional methods were added it its place.
• javax.net.ssl.SSLContext changed the arguments on its init method.
• javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager changed its isClientTrusted and isServerTrusted methods. Use checkClientTrusted and checkServerTrusted methods instead with the appropriate parameters.
• Class javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection has new abstract methods to implement.
• Class javax.net.ssl.KeyManagerFactorySpi has new abstract methods to implement.
• Class javax.net.ssl.SSLContextSpi has new abstract methods to implement.
• Class javax.net.ssl.TrustManagerFactorySpi has new abstract methods to implement.
• Interface javax.net.ssl.HostnameVerifier has a new method to implement.
• Interface javax.net.ssl.X509KeyManager has new methods to implement.
• Interface javax.net.ssl.X509TrustManager has new methods to implement.
