Im pretty new to SSL, however in making an SSL request, how would i prevent the "handshake" happening each time i call an HTTPS url in Android. Is it possible to just store the SSL session?

How are you making your requests? Are you seeing separate handshakes for every new request to a particular host and how frequently?

I would think that the underlying security libraries on Android, much like Sun's JSSE, would automatically cache the TLS session ID when you're working with a particular host.

  • Android webview doesn't seem to cache the session ID. And as a result there's a new handshake everytime. But strangely requests made in intervals less than ~5s seems to work without handshake. Any idea? – Sudarshan Bhat Jun 30 '12 at 04:15
