neonhttpsrc lacks support for proxy servers
Last modified: 2008-01-31 09:16:55 UTC
The element needs to support http proxy servers, this should be done by: 1. properties for proxy, 2. a signal when it handles a new connection, so that the front-end can set the proxy according to the hostname being targetted This would make it possible for applications to get the proxy information from gconf and use it with the networking plugins.
Hi, If I understood the question, you want that the neonhttpsrc send a GStMessage to the Element's GstBus, signalizing every time the proxy is changed. I hope the patch I attached below solves this issue. By the way, there is a property that you can use to set the proxy host URL ("proxy"). If this parameter is not passed to the gst-launch, the proxy host is got from the environment variable's list, by calling "g_getenv ("http_proxy")". Best regards...
Created attachment 85595 [details] [review] Send a message every time a proxy URL is changed, and when a HTTP redirect is required.
Perhaps I'm missing something here. Why does the proxy need to be updated every time a connection is made?
neonhttpsrc has support for proxys... via the "proxy" property and the $http_proxy env variable. Closing this bug...
