Adding java.net.Proxy to the JRE Class White List wouldn't be harmfull, so I'm wondering why the decision was made to not add it.
I'm developing a API library which will need to connect to a certain URL and post info. For a personal project on GAE I need it to be GAE compatible, but I think more people - also outside GAE - could benefit of this library so I don't want to make it dependent on GAE. So for using the library on GAE nothing special needs to be done, but for people who want to use it ouside GAE and assumable behind a proxy I want to support a proxy and proxy authentication. I was thinking of giving the option to set a java.net.Proxy and java.net.Authenticator class when needed. The Authenticator is on the Class White List but the Proxy isn't. 1) Why is java.net.Proxy not on the JRE Class White List? 2) Can't it be added in a future release? 3) Any workaround ideas if 2) is not going to be happen Cheers, Marcel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
