Key: HTTPCLIENT-1303
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1303
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.2.3
Reporter: Denis Carniel
The HttpClient provides an implementation (SystemDefaultHttpClient) which can
retrieve proxy information using the ProxySelector class which is a very
convenient way to handle proxies in a consistent manner throughout an
application.
Though this implementation does not seem to support retrieving proxy
credentials from the java.net.Authenticator class. As a result I don't seem to
find a way to use the SystemDefaultHttpClient with my ProxySelector and pass
credentials for the connection (I would need to know the host and port to
define the scope and those are returned by my ProxySelector).
Supporting the java.net.Authenticator as credentials source for the proxy
connection would be a nice addition, alternatively providing credentials for
proxy connection in general would be sufficient (e.g. having a AuthScope.PROXY
constant).
