	Defining Proxies and Proxy Support by Timothy Stone-3 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Developers, I recently began enhancing the TwitterNotificationPlugin when certain features were desired in our corporate environment, specifically the need to access services through a proxy. This led to a larger design question that I wanted to pass to the developer list for review. Defining proxies can be set through the System properties. However, this is a JVM wide setting that defines the proxy for all applications running in the VM on all threads. This might not be desirable. As I began designing and coding, I thought more about where should a proxy be defined. After some consideration, I settled on the application context. This seems most practical when you think about deployment. If blojsom is deployed in a corporate environment requiring the use of the proxy, then BAM! Only blojsom uses the proxy and all the application plugins can use the proxy definitions defined in the application context properties. I'm preparing a commit to the TwitterNotificationPlugin with this support. Yet, this could be further enhanced with a ServletContextListener and the use of java.net.Proxy. Build the Proxy and put it on the application context for use by plugins needing a proxy. What are the thoughts of others that have needed to answer this question in web applications?

	Re: Defining Proxies and Proxy Support by Ingo Jobling :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hardly anyone using Blojsom, too bad. The original developers seem to have abandoned the project. If you have decided to use it in your corporate environment, then just fix it up as you require. If you feel that your modifications would be useful to others, it would be nice to share, but I think that the project needs to some new people to take loving care of it! -----Original Message----- From: Timothy Stone [mailto:blojsom.developer@...] Sent: July-17-09 9:16 PM To: blojsom-developers@...
