How to use the Poco C++ HTTPSessionFactory

How is the best, simplest way to set up t开发者_StackOverflow社区he HTTPSessionFactory to handle both HTTP and HTTPS? I know that I need to use HTTPSessionInstantiators, but I could really use a short and sweet example. Thanks.

You need to register the 'http' and 'https' protocols.

And for handling 'https', you also need to configure your SSLManager with cert and context, here is a piece of example code:

//register http and https
HTTPSessionFactory::defaultFactory().registerProtocol("http", new HTTPSessionInstantiator);
HTTPSessionFactory::defaultFactory().registerProtocol("https", new HTTPSSessionInstantiator);
//prepare for SSLManager
SharedPtr ptrCert = new AcceptCertificateHandler(false);
const Poco::Net::Context::Ptr context = new Context(Context::CLIENT_USE, "", "", "", Context::VERIFY_NONE, 9, false, "ALL:!ADH:!LOW:!EXP:!MD5:@STRENGTH");
SSLManager::instance().initializeClient(0, ptrCert, context);
// now you have the HTTP(S)ClientSession
HTTPClientSession *session = HTTPSessionFactory::defaultFactory().createClientSession(uri);
