HTTPS connection in iphone

Question

How to connect to https url from iphone application ? Is there any sample code available?

Thanks & Regards, Yogini

Answer 1

You don't need to use anything special in order to GET information through HTTPS protocol in iPhone SDK.

1. If you need to display HTML information, use UIWebView
2. If you just need to POST or GET something, use NSURL in combination with NSData, NSString or something to retrieve the information contained in it.

Answer 2

The same way that you connect to a http URL. The Cocoa Touch API does all the hard stuff behind the scenes.

"Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=306" means "A connection could not be established to the specified HTTP proxy." Seems that there's a problem with your networking configuration.

Answer 3

The most common cause of this is an untrusted certificate. If you cannot install a trusted certificate, see the previous discussion of this.
