Class ProxySetup

java.lang.Object
uk.ac.starlink.util.ProxySetup
public class ProxySetup extends Object
A singleton class for controlling the configuration of the web proxy system properties. The values are stored as Preferences associated with this class and can be restored to the related System properties "http.proxySet", "http.proxyHost", "http.proxyPort" and nonProxyHosts and saved back again.

To enable any stored proxy setup just do: 

   ProxySetup.getInstance().restore();
Sometime during application startup. Note that this will supercede any system properties already set (but only if any Preferences have been defined).
