Ernst has just posted his code for an ssl interceptor he just created. It looks awesome so take a look for yourself.

MatchBox and WebAssembly: Running BoxLang in the Browser and at the Edge
The MatchBox open beta is live at https://boxlang.ortusbooks.com/boxlang-framework/matchbox, and it brings something genuinely new to the BoxLang ecosystem: a path into WebAssembly.
That means BoxLang code can now move into browser applications, static-site deployments, edge runtimes, and WASI-style containers - without requiring a JVM. The feature is still beta, but the core direction is already useful: write BoxLang, compile it with MatchBox, and ship the generated WASM artifact to wherever a small portable runtime makes sense.

BoxLang 1.14.0 : BoxSet is Here: BoxLang's New First-Class Set Type
BoxLang 1.14.0 ships something that JVM developers have wanted for a long time: a true first-class Set type baked directly into the language. Not a wrapper you reach for manually, not a createObject( "java", "java.util.HashSet" ) incantation you paste from a Stack Overflow answer years ago. A real BoxSet with literal syntax, operator overloads, a full functional pipeline, change listeners, JSON serialization, and deep Java interop.

It's missing some functionality ... how does it know which event has to be secured? It should secure only specific events, and force unsecured requests for the rest. something like if not isSsl and requireSll then cflocate to https if isSsl and not requireSll then cflocate to http

That is up to Ernst, but I think its a good start.

Rob you're right. We could implement that. Just make a list of allowed events without SSL as a property in interceptor xml definition and then check with event.getCurrentEvent() if we need SSL.
I will take a look and keep you informed.

Rob, I made in new blog entry. The SSL interceptor now supports SSL for specific events. Comments are welcome!
