[Glass] Alternatives for HTTPS client

Fri Nov 15 09:33:42 PST 2013

Mariano, 

One of the motivations for porting Zinc is to get to the point where we can port Zodiac as well, but we are not quite there yet .. It turns that Sean Allen wrote a post about https clients and GLASS (GsWebEdition?)[1] ... then you can use the Zinc client code to do https connects ... I do believe that the Zinc client code is pretty solid, but Johan should let us know the details ...

| Hi guys. I need a HTTPS client to do a post. Actually, my app need to
| connect to many "financial institutions" though a protocol. I have a
| collection of financial institutions (stored in my database) and
| each of them provides the URL I need to connect and do the post.
| Some are HTTPS some are HTTP.

| In Pharo, I use Zodiac. The nice thing is that by using ZnClient I
| can either connect to HTTP and HTTPS. I do this:

| | client |
| client := ZnClient new.
| client
| systemPolicy;
| accept: 'application/xxx' asZnMimeType ;
| https;
| contents: stream contents;
| logToTranscript;
| url: aStringURL;
| post.

| What are the workarounds I could do in GemStone?

| Thanks in advance,
