Eclipse Galileo Proxy detection by URL


In earlier versions of Eclipse I was able to add an URL to auto detect the proxy settings. How can I tell Eclipse to use an Auto Proxy Configuration URL?

Solution

  • If you refer to the "old" (3.3) setting:

    alt text
    (source: eclipse.org)

    The new setting also allows for:

    • PAC (Proxy Auto Configuration), mode "Native" (default since 3.4, even though that still have some bug like Bug 257443)
    • Manual proxy settings, mode "Manual"

    alt text
    (source: eclipse.org)
