| [geclipse-dev] Network Preferences |
|
Hi All, Since we are now going for Eclipse 3.3 I removed the
g-Eclipse Network Preference Page and all related Preferences from the core and
the ui according to bug #184598. So in order to adjust your network settings
you have to use the Eclipse 3.3 Network Preference Page that can be found in
the Preference Dialog at “General->Network Connections”. The
only operation that makes currently use of these network settings is the download
of the CA certificates. Would be great if you could crosscheck if the new
implementation works for you and give me some feedback if there are any
problems - especially if you are behind a proxy that needs authentication since
I cannot test this in the FZK. Some further notes: -
For sure you need to
build g-Eclipse against Markus’ target. But since we agreed to switch to
this target I am quite sure that everybody already did this switch. -
If you rely on
URL-connections (http, https, socks) you should use eu.geclipse.core.Preferences.getURLConnection(URL).
This method examines the specified URL and gives you an appropriate
URLConnection object with the right proxy settings for the scheme and the host
of the specified URL. Wish you all a nice weekend, Mathias |
