## org.apache.http.conn.ssl
Class BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AbstractVerifier
          org.apache.http.conn.ssl.BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier

All Implemented Interfaces:
  HostnameVerifier, X509HostnameVerifier

    @Immutable
    public class BrowserCompatHostnameVerifier

extends AbstractVerifier

The HostnameVerifier that works the same way as Curl and Firefox.

The hostname must match either the first CN, or any of the subject-alts. A wildcard can occur in the CN, and in any of the subject-alts.

The only difference between BROWSER_COMPATIBLE and STRICT is that a wildcard (such as "*.foo.com") with BROWSER_COMPATIBLE matches all subdomains, including "a.b.foo.com".

Since:
  4.0

Method Detail

### verify

    public final void verify(String host,
                             String[] cns,
                             String[] subjectAlts)
                      throws SSLException

  Description copied from interface: `X509HostnameVerifier`
  Checks to see if the supplied hostname matches any of the supplied CNs or "DNS" Subject-Alts. Most implementations only look at the first CN, and ignore any additional CNs. Most implementations do look at all of the "DNS" Subject-Alts. The CNs or Subject-Alts may contain wildcards according to RFC 2818.

  Parameters:
    `host` - The hostname to verify.
    `cns` - CN fields, in order, as extracted from the X.509 certificate.
    `subjectAlts` - Subject-Alt fields of type 2 ("DNS"), as extracted from the X.509 certificate.
  Throws:
    `SSLException` - if the verification process fails.

### toString

    public final String toString()

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `Object`
