solves problems for http and https proxies described in this bug solves tracebacks if proxy is specified for a protocol where no proxy is currently supported added dynamic proxy authentification for http and https solved bug that if a host accessed by the https protocol requires authentification, the https proxy won't be used after questioning the password
Logged In: YES user_id=863272 Perhaps some words about the accuracy of the patch: I have successfully tested it with squid 2.5 and squid 3.0 as http and https proxy with and without password. I used the integrated test routines in urllib.py
Logged In: YES user_id=6380 The patch looks good as a fix for bug 495682. I don't see which lines in the patch warrant the claim "solves tracebacks if proxy is specified for a protocol where no proxy is currently supported" -- can you explain this? I'd like you to request validation (testing) from someone else on python-dev who can actually run this code -- I have no way to verify that it works as advertised.
Logged In: YES user_id=863272 Sorry, I have only uploaded an old version of the patch. There, the traceback problem was not solved at all 8-) I have now added the complete patch, that already relates to the newest version in the subversion repository. I will try to get another tester for my code, but it might be difficult. Unfortunately, only few people have an SSL capable proxy.
