Re: [jetty-users] Encryption of the HTTP protocol (e.g. not its payload)
|
Simone,
Just following up my initial question, how does one upgrade an Endpoint from within a Servlet? In my setup the encryption keys that are required to upgrade to an encrypted connection are the result of an HttpServletRequest that got processed
I fail to see how to access the underlying data structures down to the HttpConnection and Endpoint in order to do that

I already have a custmised HhttpConnection in place to deal with Apple modifying the HTTP Verb for Event handling. I would mean that I have to adapt OnFillable() to deal with decryption, and modify SendCallback to deal with encryption (e.g. the FLUSH case branch). And then in the application layer, whenever I derive the encryption keys, do an Endpoint.upgrade() to this customised class, and I would not have to deal with al the buffer dynamics of Endpoint itself
