Ok, I guess I found the answer myself in RequestQueue from the android
sources
/**
* Because our IntentReceiver can run within a different thread,
* synchronize setting the proxy
*/
private synchronized void setProxyConfig() {
NetworkInfo info = mConnectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo
();
if (info != null && info.getType() ==
ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI) {
mProxyHost = null;
} else {
String host = Proxy.getHost(mContext);
if (HttpLog.LOGV) HttpLog.v("RequestQueue.setProxyConfig "
+ host);
if (host == null) {
mProxyHost = null;
} else {
mActivePool.disablePersistence();
mProxyHost = new HttpHost(host, Proxy.getPort
(mContext), "http");
}
}
}
My question is what would happen if the DHCP server for wifi would
impose a proxy? Would it then be handled transparently?
Am I missing something or wouldnt it be very nice if there was a
public http api which would do all of this for me? AFAICS
android.net.http.HttpConnection et al are not accessible via the
public SDK.
cheers
