Class Restriction in Eclipse

I was trying Google App Engine to build a sample application using Eclipse plugin. I tried creating a HttsURLConnection class in my code, and the editor showed a RED mark complaining 'javax.net.ssl.HttpsURLConnection is not supported by Google App Engine's Java runtime environment', I was wondering how this is being done, is it done by GAE plugin that I have installed? How is this accomplished? I have JRE System Library[jdk1.6.0_27] in my class path.

I think it is a compile time check?

Are they restricting access using policy files which I think is a runtime behavior?

This is a restriction related probably to the sandbox environment of Google App Engine platform where "Applications run in a secure environment that provides limited access to the underlying operating system". Also it appears that you're not the only one with this problem: see this, specially the part where says that "HttpsURLConnection is not currently available and we should remove the reference to it from the documentation"
