call.invoke through a proxy

[Suhas Ghorpadkar <su...@prusec.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to invoke "Currency Exchange Service" at XMethods with
axis/tomcat. In my client, I have the
following :

String endpoint = "http://services.xmethods.net/soap";
Service  service = new Service();
Call call    = (Call) service.createCall();
call.setTargetEndpointAddress( new java.net.URL(endpoint) );
call.setOperationName( new QName("urn:xmethods-CurrencyExchange",
"getRate") );
call.addParameter( "country1", XMLType.XSD_STRING,
ParameterMode.PARAM_MODE_IN );
call.addParameter( "country2", XMLType.XSD_STRING,
ParameterMode.PARAM_MODE_IN );
call.setReturnType( XMLType.XSD_FLOAT );
String cntry1 = "japan";
String cntry2 = "usa";
float ret = ((Float) call.invoke( new Object[] { cntry1,
cntry2})).floatValue();

My machine is behind a firewall and the code above produces exception :
java.net.ConnectException : Operation timed out Connect

I don't know how to specify proxyhost, port, userid and password in axis.
In SOAP,
there was a way to create connection object using these properties. I
couldn't find anything similar in Axis.

Thanks in advance.
