Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 I use my Eclipse private and at work and have to reconfigure the proxy settings anytime I change the context. Wouldn't it be nice to use the proxy only if it is available? I wrote a plugin which configures this issue automatically, it works fine for me... boolean proxyAvailable = false; try { new Socket(PROXY_HOST, PROXY_PORT); proxyAvailable = true; LOGGER.info("Proxy is available, configure proxy manually"); } catch (Exception e) { LOGGER.info("Proxy is not available, configure no proxy"); } recognizes, if proxy is available... This has impact on any features - IDE, Using P2 Director, Mirroring Udpatesites, ..... Best regards Markus Oley Reproducible: Always
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
Hi Lars, for me the bug is not relevant anymore, because I don't switch the same instance of eclipse in both projects at work and private. I am using goomph to configure a project dependent eclipse instance were I configure the proxy as I need it. So if noone else has problems with this behaviour I think you can close it
