Ok, when I get a minute I'll trace the bug and see about filing a bug report and/or patch. In the interim, I didn't know about the proxy stuff in the new JRE. I run Linux with the KDE desktop, will it pick up my Konqueror proxy settings as well or do I have to install/configure gnome to get it to work?
I'm going to be honest. I havent seen any evidence it works yet. But then I use firefox on both systems.
All proxy stuff is a dog to test. This is where we need vmware images and automated deployment of web proxies as part of the test harness, with ant running in a vm with no network access other than via the proxy.
Right now I'm using a weird patch solution which involves a <scriptdef/> task with a beanshell snippet similar to what I found in the Ant source base. I basically create an Authenticator and set it as the default. I call and use this as a -set-authenticator task/target. I then combine this with the setproxy task to set the server and port. The funniest thing is that it seems to work without the setproxy task. In other words it's almost as if the JVM already knows what proxy to use and only has trouble with the authentication step. That's the only code I have in my script task. I don't really understand it. I'm not sure where it gets the proxy info from. I'm not supplying it on the cmd line and I'm running JRE 1.4.2. I'll have to play with it some more. Thanx for the tip.
