Checks whether a socket provides a secure connection.
[Android.Runtime.Register("isSecure", "(Ljava/net/Socket;)Z", "GetIsSecure_Ljava_net_Socket_Handler:Org.Apache.Http.Conn.Schemes.ISocketFactoryInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")]
public bool IsSecure (Java.Net.Socket? sock);[<Android.Runtime.Register("isSecure", "(Ljava/net/Socket;)Z", "GetIsSecure_Ljava_net_Socket_Handler:Org.Apache.Http.Conn.Schemes.ISocketFactoryInvoker, Mono.Android, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null")>]
abstract member IsSecure : Java.Net.Socket -> boolParameters
- sock
- Socket
the connected socket to check
Returns
true if the connection of the socket
should be considered secure, or
false if it should not
- Attributes
Exceptions
if the argument is invalid, for example because it is not a connected socket or was created by a different socket factory. Note that socket factories are not required to check these conditions, they may simply return a default value when called with an invalid socket argument.
Remarks
Checks whether a socket provides a secure connection. The socket must be #connectSocket connected by this factory. The factory will not perform I/O operations in this method. <br/> As a rule of thumb, plain sockets are not secure and TLS/SSL sockets are secure. However, there may be application specific deviations. For example, a plain socket to a host in the same intranet ("trusted zone") could be considered secure. On the other hand, a TLS/SSL socket could be considered insecure based on the cypher suite chosen for the connection.
