public interface HostnameVerifier
This class is the base interface for hostname verification.
During handshaking, if the URL's hostname and the server's identification hostname mismatch, the verification mechanism can call back to implementers of this interface to determine if this connection should be allowed.
The policies can be certificate-based or may depend on other authentication schemes.
These callbacks are used when the default rules for URL hostname verification fail.
boolean verify(String hostname,
SSLSession session) Verify that the host name is an acceptable match with the server's authentication scheme.
hostname - the host namesession - SSLSession used on the connection to host
