[jira] Updated: (HTTPCLIENT-649) Support multiple proxies

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-649?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Oleg Kalnichevski updated HTTPCLIENT-649:
-----------------------------------------

      Component/s:     (was: HttpClient)
                   HttpConn
    Fix Version/s: 4.0 Alpha 1

Murty, 

I think this kind of functionality is usually referred to as proxy chaining. Presently HttpClient does not support it and see no easy and elegant way of adding it to the HttpClient 3.x code line. HttpClient is currently undergoing a complete redesign and we certainly could add support for proxy chaining to HttpClient 4.0.

> HttpClient supports one proxy currently.
> Our requirement is to suppport more than one proxy. We may need to connect more than one proxies before connects to target resource. 
> I found that HttpMethodDirector creates tunnelled socket and there is no easy way to plugin our custom HttpMethodDirector class with HttpClient other than extending HttpClient to override "public int executeMethod(HostConfiguration hostconfig, final HttpMethod method, final HttpState state" method.
