Hi,
If I need to post data using URLConnection/HttpURLConnection with the URL being "https://www.abc.com", do I need to do anything special for HTTPS ?
Thanks

You will need to download the Java Secure Socket Extensions api ( JSSE ). This has the class HttpsUrlConnection that you can use to perform a secure post similar to using the HttpUrlConnection to perform an unsecure one.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://zeroturnaround.com/jrebel - it saves me about five hours per week
