Sorry to say this, but there's no way around it. You'll have to find a different way to connect to the proxy and tell it what to retrieve - for instance, the proxy could implement a HTTP API that you could then call out to using basic urlfetch. Another alternative is to use a Managed VM <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/managed-vms/#managed_vm_considerations> and access the proxy from there, or use a prebuilt solution such as Blockspring <https://api.blockspring.com/flightman/3db26e8ace9205d683879f0fecf7bd16>. ----------------- -Vinny P Technology & Media Consultant Chicago, IL App Engine Code Samples: http://www.learntogoogleit.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
