Re: [aether-users] Proxy integration inside Eclipse

AFAIK, you need to do this programmatically, as Aether doesn't know
anything about the way how Eclipse handles proxies. There is a
ProxySelector interface [1], however, so I would suggest writing an
Adapter from Eclipse's IProxyService to Aether's ProxySelector.
However, keep in mind that Aether then gets an up-to-date view of
Eclipse's proxy configuration, which may change over time (although I
don't know how often Aether actually queries the ProxySelector; probably
Benjamin knows). This may or may not be what you want.
Anyways, if you follow the Adapter route, I would be very interested in
your code.
Hope this helps.
Andreas
