The attached modified class is to add support for https tunneling through a proxy that requires authentication. Although tunneling that requires authentication works with http, it didn't for https.
After sniffing around, I found that the standard system property for the authentication string to pass to the proxy is https.proxyAuth. This authentication string format is defined in the "HTTP Authentication: Basic and Digest Access Authentication" specification found at ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2617.txt. If https.proxyAuth is not found it assumes proxy authentication is not required.
If everything is found to be acceptable, could someone commit these changes? Thanks. Comments/suggestions welcome,
Phil.
