connect via proxy

[Querent <qu...@yahoo.com>]

Dear all,
 
My program is using Get and Post method in HttpClient. The program works if the internet connection is using dial up. But not if using proxy.
Do I have to set up proxy manually in the program ? (my proxy doesn't need authentication)
Can it just detect the connection from the browsers ?
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi Quent,

Yes, proxy configuration must be manually set.  This can be done using  
something like:

	HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
	client.getHostConfiguration().setProxy("hostname", 123);
	GetMethod get = new GetMethod("http://somehost.com");
	client.executeMethod(get);

Please take a look at  
<http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/ 
commons/httpclient/HostConfiguration.html> for some more about  
HostConfiguration.
