Status of proxy test infrastructure

[Ortwin Glück <or...@nose.ch>]

Dear fellows,

As you know I am having quite a bit of fun crafting the infrastructure 
for automated proxy test cases using Chris Kohlschütter's code as a 
foundation. Now, the basic code is written for authentication, 
transparent proxy and normal proxy. Authentication already works with 
basic (todo: digest, ntlm). Transparent proxy should work as this one is 
really simple. Normal proxy code is incomplete.

I will need some more time to get it all ready. However this week I am 
quite busy in my free time and I can not use my work time for 
HttpClient. If you like I can check in what I have so far or post it to 
the list, so you guys can take a closer look or even continue.

It's late, going to bed now.

Odi

P.S. Please note that I have made some changes to Chris' original code 
meanwhile (see CVS log) which breaks the rest of Chris' pending patch. 
So God's final message applies: We appologize for the inconvenience. We 
can always fix that later. Also for the moment this is all done on the 
2.0 branch. The final tests + infrastructure will of course be promoted 
to HEAD as well. :-)

I will use HttpClient to access the server read (buffer) the response 
and pass it back to the client. I am not sure how complex the handling 
of headers will get and how much we need to implement here...
