Hi,
I'd like to propose libproxy (LGPL 2.1+;
http://code.google.com/p/libproxy/) as a blessed external dependency for
GNOME 2.26. libproxy is currently used by vlc and neon and libsoup and
webkit are considering adopting it.
Looking at the code, you don't listen for changes to the gconf keys. If
I have an active connection through a proxy and I change my proxy
settings, shouldn't libproxy tell the app the proxy settings have
changed, so that it can restart the connection?
libproxy reads the configuration from gconf every time a new connection
is established. IMHO, it is a bad practice to tear down a working
connection so that you can try to establish a new connection which
*might* work (or might fail). Best practice should be to keep all
operational connections established and only use the new proxy settings
for new connections.
