Using a java.net.URLConnection with a proxy [message #499470]

Hi.

I want to HTTP POST some stuff from an Eclipse plugin to a server. To do this, I create a URLConnection, set its doOutput property, get it's outputSream, squirt my stuff up the output stream and then read the response.

This works perfectly well when I run the server locally. However, when I try to use it through a proxy, it doesn't connect. I know I can contact the server through the proxy because if I put the URL into a browser, I can see it connect.

I know that Eclipse has got it's own bits and pieces for dealing with a proxy. How do I use this to achieve my goal?

Regards,

Lance
