Thanks, I saw that, but I did not understand or trust that page was all
there was.
Is it okay when using HttpClientBuilder to cascade a couple of uses of
*using()*? Like so:
CredentialsProvider credsProvider = new BasicCredentialsProvider();
credsProvider.setCredentials(
new AuthScope(proxyConfig.getHost(), proxyConfig.getPort()),
new UsernamePasswordCredentials("username", "password")
);
final HttpClient apiHttpClient = new HttpClientBuilder(env)
.using(config.getHttpClient())
.using(credsProvider)
.build("client");
