Displaying pictures in image view from a self-signed certificate site
Hi everyone, is there a way to display pictures from a self signed certificate server in a image view. Something like this:
imageView.image='https://somesite.com:19000/someimage.jpg
Thanks

It's true if you use xhr. But if you put imageView property for image to a SSL certificate, like:
someImageView.image="https://…."
it doesn't. -
Is it a requirement to access your image over SSL? The download speed over 3G or Edge networks will be adversely impacted by doing so. Can you serve static assets over HTTP?
If SSL for images is a hard necessity of your app, we may need to look at modifying the ImageView code to support self-signed certificates. On Android especially, self-signed certificates cause special problems we had to address in HTTPClient specifically - could be we need to explore similar methods for ImageView.
Other option would be to use XHR to fetch the image, store it on the filesystem, and reference the file in the image view.

It would be nice to do so, specially because of my other issue.

I'd like to see this feature too. I mean to display pictures from a self signed certificate server without the need to request them via xhr and to store them on the device before. Some of my app users have self signed certificates server running which breaks all remote images. I can't influence whether they have self signed certificates or not.
