I just got started with HttpClient yesterday. I am using it so I can add proxy support to my client application.
I installed HttpClient and ezProxy on my machine and I am able to successfully send/recieve http through ezProxy using HttpClient. Sweet! However, I am anticipating the following problems: 1) I don't have an adequate environment to test the various proxies and thier configurations. Are there any proxies online that can be used for testing? Wishful thinking I know, but just thought I'd ask. ezProxy is not going to cut it. 2) My application will allow the user to define the proxy and port to use, either socks or HTTP proxy. I am not going to store the proxy userid/password. I'll have the user enter the credentials if I get a 407 response and display my own userid/password dialog at that time. This seems fine, but when I read about the NTLM protocol it looks like I'm going to a 407 twice from the proxy. I guess I just ignore the second one, but the lack of a testing environment puts the pressure on to get this exactly right. 3) What is the response code if the proxy authentication fails?
