Dear Rene ยจ
thanks for your comment. BUT as long as ant does not do as it should it might be a gradel dev issue to get things fixed. Hence my posting in this forum. Its said now, and nobody can claim not being made aware. Josef --- see a mail from my friend Philippe Vouters to the same theme. Dear Josef, To address your concern about Maven, Gruwy and Gradle, one thing they have to do if Ant does not enable proxy access when authorization is required is to invoke a Java class such like I describe at http://vouters.dyndns.org/tima/All-OS-ANT-ANT_and_URLs_authentication.html <http://vouters.dyndns.org/tima/All-OS-ANT-ANT_and_URLs_authentication.html> . This is as long as standard Ant does not enable proxy access with authentication. If you read this document carefully, you will notice that the code pulls in org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher. This is what Maven, Gruwy and Gradle do directly, bypassing any fetch of http.proxyUser and http.proxyPassword. This bypassing is the reason why you get fooled at your office.
