... if anyone happens to be looking into the MT proxy code: If I set a proxy (using the iOS one, usually, but I think it happens if I do it in code too), then:
GET https://api.dropbox.com etc (this works) GET https://api.someoneelse.com (this doesn't work - it calls api.dropbox.com and passes the url / query string for this request) needless to say, api.someoneelse.com doesn't understand dropbox api calls... I thought it was just RestSharp, as I can't repro consistently without using it, but I also can't see how RS would be doing it.... makes no sense. My answer has always been "dont use a proxy. Or Onavo". Lucky most people dont' use them. On Wed, Nov 28, 2012 at 3:56 PM, Robert Reck <[email protected]> wrote: > I had something similar happen very recently.
