Hello,

I am making an api call to a web service url: https://api.github.com/users/octocat

I am getting the following console error
 

"Error: SSL handshake failed status:" 
Error retrieving feed:  "Error: SSL handshake failed status:" 

 
The call goes something like this:

QString queryUri = "https://api.github.com/users/octocat"; 
QUrl url(queryUri);
QNetworkRequest req(url);

 
Do you guys know how to resolve this error? How does C++/Cascades handle calls to web services with HTTPS? All I need is to get the data back.

Help please.

Thank you for your reply. I encountered the error via my console log (on device). I am not authenticating the client or using certificated, but the api endpoint is based on https.... Just need to make a simple call.

I will defer this issue. Solving this may not be worth the effort, esp for a niche application.
