Cameron Simpson added the comment: Well, following your description I've backed out my urllib2 test case to this: f = urllib2.urlopen('https://localhost/boguspath') os.system("lsof -p %d | grep IPv4" % (os.getpid(),)) f = urllib2.urlopen(R) print f.read() and it happily runs HTTPS thro

Senthil Kumaran added the comment: As you noticed, the _set_tunnel method is a private method not intended to be used directly. Its being used by urllib2 when https through proxy is required. urllib2 works like this, it reads HTTPS_PROXY environment variable (in turn includes HTTPSProxyHandler

Cameron Simpson added the comment: Amendment: regarding the infinite regress, it looks like there will not be a recursion if the caller leaps straight to the .connect() method. However, if they do that then the call to _tunnel() from within connect() will happen _after_ the socket is made dir

New submission from Cameron Simpson : I'm trying to do HTTPS via a proxy in Python 2.6.4 (which is supposed to incorporate this fix from issue 1424152). While trying to debug this starting from the suds library I've been reading httplib.py and urllib2.py to figure out what's going wrong and fo
