What do you think of this? If you choose one of theses solutions, I
can post the patch.
I think they are both good solutions and maybe could be used together.
I'd start with the second one as it doesn't requires model changes and
can be included in Maven 2.0.3.
I'd also special case https to use the http proxy if none is defined.
Proxy setup in java is a real pain. Personally I'd like apps on my
laptop to try and use a proxy if nslookup fails then skip it if not, but
try explaining that to Java, even Java1.5. And don't even mention the
autoproxy stuff in Java1.5 as it doesn't work. My laptop is clever
enough to change IE's proxy settings as it roams (see
http://www.hpl.hp.com/techreports/2001/HPL-2001-158.pdf ) , and yet the
java 5 proxy stuff doesnt pick up even static things.
My planned workaround for all this is to actually host a local proxy and
route everything through there, with that separate program containing
all the logic for proxy binding hosted there -it'd contain the
intelligence to choose proxy based on WLAN ID, IP address &c, and have
a single override point.
