SSL/HTTPS for CF.NET

[Kris]

Does CF.NET support SSL/HTTPS? Can anyone give me pointers.

Thanks,
Kris

Yes it does. What're you trying to do?

We want to do a POST to a HTTPS based IIS application from a CF.NET Forms application. Currently the application on the PocketPC is written using AppForge and we are moving to CF.NET platform soon. We want to know if CF.NET platform provides support for SSL/HTTPS and if so, would like to make use of this. Any information or pointers on this will be very helpful.

Thanks.

Take a look at the HttpWebRequest class.

Can't find any useful properties in that class.

I have a SSL-enabled web-server with self-issued certificate.
Then I installed that certificate on my handheld.
When I use IE on the url it works just perfect; no warnings and all encrypted.
When I use HttpWebRequest/Response towards the same url I get:
System.net.webexception: Could not establish trust relationsship with remote
server.
