20041201: IDV - HOw can I set http proxy for IDV?
- Subject: 20041201: IDV - HOw can I set http proxy for IDV?

I have set the environmental variable
http_proxy (such as to http://proxy.xxxx:8080/,
which works with lynx etc), but IDV
did not recognize it. Requests to 80 and 8080
ports from my IDV session were blocked by firewall.
This must be a FAQ, but I could not find
it in the IDV web site.
Also, I could not send a support message from
the support request form of IDV due to an error,
but this is trivial to me.
(Sorry I did not save the message.)
Hi Takeshi,
You can specify the proxy server/port to use from the command lin with a
java system property:
java -Dhttp.proxyHost=your.proxy.host
-Dhttp.proxyPort=proxy_port_number -Xmx512m ucar.unidata.idv.DefaultIdv
If you are running from an InstallAnywhere just change the runIDV or
runIDV.bat script, adding the above arguments.
If you are running from Webstart then this will not work.
Not having a proxy server to use I have not been able to test this
thoroughly. I do know that ADDE requests
will *not* work with this solution, just http requests.
