WPAD file proxy configuration

[Alexander Podelko <ap...@yahoo.com.INVALID>]

Hi,
Is there any way to configure proxy using a WPAD file (automatic configuration script)? Unfortunately it doesn't look like a combination of proxyHost/proxyPort/nonProxyHosts properly replace it.
Thanks,Alex

Hi,
To use wpad I usually open it and extracted server ip and port and use:
1.
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/net/doc-files/net-properties.html
( -Dhttp(s).* ) properties
or
2.https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/get-started.html (-H, -P,  -N, -a,
-u )
Sometimes strange characters  in password bring some problems to
authorization when used in command line during jmeter start.
Sometimes I have to add some corpo certs to keystore also to make it work.

Hello,
I think improving this part might be a very good improvement.
I see there are least 2 possibles approaches:
Based on JNA:

Based on Calling JS from Java:

We could also support pac:

Any thoughts ?
