CInclude + proxy server

[Antony Quinn <aq...@ebi.ac.uk>]

Hello,

I'm using CInclude to obtain data from local and remote servers. This 
works fine on my desktop, but in our production environment I need to 
use a proxy server to connect to external URLs.

I've checked Sun's network documentation* and found that you can 
configure proxying using system properties. The Tomcat documentation** 
also explains how to pass these properties when starting Catalina. For 
example, I could add the following to startup.sh or to a script that 
calls startup.sh:

export JAVA_OPTS='-Dhttp.proxyHost=wwwcache.ebi.ac.uk 
-Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=*.ebi.ac.uk|localhost 
-DproxySet=true'

Before I bug our systems people, does anyone know if this works?

I checked the CInclude source code [http://tinyurl.com/ozqnm] but 
couldn't figure out it if uses the java.net libraries to make remote 
connections.

Cheers,

Antony
