Hi Oleg,
I'm well ware of what HTTP CONNECT is used for and how it works. When I added
the explicit protocol selection in the snippet of code previously sent
out, I was
just checking to see if the scheme would e inherited from the host
configuration.
I had meant to cut that code out prior to sending out my email but it
looks like I
had forgotten do do that..
I'm just trying to get an HTTP CONNECT to work through an upstream proxy
to a site passed to my code in the form of a hostname and port authority
specification. It seems like it's getting tripped up in httpclient
when the authority
specification is being parsed/interpreted as a URI.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
