RE: axis client going through http proxy server... Anyone at all?

["Avadhanula, Suresh " <SA...@dorado.com>]

I just tried this Axis 1.1 and was able to get it working. We have a
requirement were we can connect to multiple webservices from our
applications and each one of the webservice may or may not have a proxy
headers defined. 
I have implmented my own socket factory that plugs in to Axis easily
using JDK 1.3 service discovery mechanism. All you have to do is have a
class that extends org.apache.axis.components.net.DefaultSocketFactory
and specify it in
META-INF/services/org.apache.axis.components.net.SocketFactory ( as
that's the class it implements).


Having said that your code below should work. I can't think of problem
on top of my head. Axis uses jakarta-commons Discovery service's
ManagedProperties
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/discovery/commons-discovery-0.2/docs/a
pi/org/apache/commons/discovery/tools/ManagedProperties.html to read
System properties. You might want to take a look ther to find out why
its not being set.

Hope that helps

Hasn't anyone at all gotten this working with the current release of
axis? I would love to hear from you, anything at all would be very
helpful I am sure :-)

Does Richard Sitze still read/post here? If you do, I think you probably
could point me in the right direction :-)

Thanks again,
