set proxy host/port ???
I am attempting to connect to a local proxy to inspect my internet trafic.
The proxy is listening to port 8888 so I though the attached code would
pass through it and I would the see request/response. Nothing happens in
the
proxy.
Java seems to be ignoring the proxySet stuff. I would have been happy just
to
get an error code something like invalid port
I attempted setting these parameters with the java -D
java -DproxySet=true -Dhttp.proxyHost=127.0.0.1 -Dhttp.proxyPort=8888
Thanks for any suggestions
code example
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class ProxyTest {
public static void main(String [] args) {
System.getProperties().put( "proxySet", "true" );
System.getProperties().put( "http.proxySet", "true" ); //probably not
needed
System.getProperties().put( "http.proxyHost", "ggcdell" ); // name of my
computer
System.getProperties().put( "http.proxyPort", "8888" );
String ht = "http://csmerge.cira.colostate.edu";
try {
URL url = new URL(ht);
URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
conn.connect();
DataInputStream s = new DataInputStream(conn.getInputStream());
String line = s.readLine();
while (line != null) {
System.out.println(line);
line = s.readLine();
}
s.close();
} catch (Exception ee) {
System.out.println(" should arrive here ");
ee.printStackTrace(System.out);
}
}
}
