Android Question HttpUtils2 htpps request

[bernardR]

Hello,
The following code does not work with android 4.4.2.
Is there a solution allowing an https request

Dim j As HttpJob
j.Initialize("", Me)
j.Download("https://www.google.com")
Wait For (j) JobDone(j As HttpJob)
If j.Success Then
   Log(j.GetString)
End If
j.Release

I have read https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/download-huge-files-with-httputils2.30220/

Thanks

The minimum version for OkHttp is Android 5.

If supporting Android 4 is important for you then you will need to use an older version of OkHttp.

It is important for me.
How to make 2 versions of the same library coexist in the b4a ide ?
Have you an example?

This article https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45877125/enable-tls-1-2-in-android-4-4 talks about the possibility of using TLS 1.2 on kitkat. Is this possible with b4a? Would it be enough to use the latest version of OhHttp ?
How to do in this case?
Thanks very much

Use the older version. The new version is better but there is nothing problematic with using the old version
You can use both libraries by renaming one of the libraries but you will also need to rename the dependency name in other libraries. Not worth the hassle.

BTW, why do you need to support Android 4 devices?

Thank you.
I have replaced the okHTTP library (ok* files) by those of b4a_11'20.

job.Download("https://www.google.com") is ok
But a request https with job.PostMultipart produces an error on Android 4.4.2:
ResponseError. Reason: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: javax.net.ssl.SSLProtocolException: SSL handshake aborted: ssl=0x63731528: Failure in SSL library, usually a protocol error

Hello Erel,
I have some users (children) of an online word game who post their solution with an old smartphone under kitkat.
My app is non-google.
