Kohsuke Kawaguchi commented on MNG-728: --------------------------------------- You are correct that it only works on URLConnections. I think what you are saying is that it's not ubiquitous; it's certainly a standard in the sense that it's defined in JRE. This isn't a Sun JVM specific feature, as the property name suggests. So it is indeed a standard. I agree with you that it probably won't eliminate the need of network configuration in Maven, but I still think it's a considerable improvement. You cited the artifact deployment as a counter-example, but number of people who actually deploys artifacts remotely is a small portion of the Maven users, whereas everyone who uses Maven needs to download jars. If we could eliminate the proxy configuration for those people (and I believe "java.net.useSystemProxies" does), that's a big win. > Consider using java.net.useSystemProxies > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-728 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-728 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Bug > Components: maven-core > Versions: 2.0-alpha-3 > Reporter: Kohsuke Kawaguchi > Priority: Minor > > > Consider using the java.net.useSystemProxies property so that Maven can work > with a proxy without requring any user intervention. > See http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohsuke/archive/2005/08/we_deserve_a_be.html > for more information. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
