site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: macnetworkprog@lists.apple.com Organization: Coderus Ltd User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/10.1.0.2006 Hi, I have been out on vacation so sorry for re-bring this up. But I was wondering if any of Apple developers would be able to answer whether using CFSocket would be able to work with proxy settings ?, as presently it seems unknown. Thanks in advance, Mark.
I don't think so (CFSocket is not something i've used very much but it's really just a tiny wrapper around a socket, just enough to integrate a socket into a CFRunLoop_ , cfnetwork will IIRC (although CFSocket can probably handle socks proxies)

Thanks Mark.
Open Transport won't do anything for you proxywise. You're basically working at the same level as sockets, but using a legacy library.

Hi, Interrupting the the .pac file, would see a bit of OT, so if I used CFNetwork would these deal with any proxy settings for me automatically.
Hmmm, makes me wonder if the Open Transport API's would work here as maybe they are build on that and they would work if CFNetwork did.
I'm guessing then working with socket's while good for cross platform portability is not good for anything which is built on top of them.
Any body known the answer's - Quinn maybe ?
Thanks Mark.
Would prefer to keep to BSD socket's or going to have to have a bit of major write to go that way, but not impossible.
You can use systemconfiguration (SCDynamicStoreCopyProxies) get the proxy settings and interpret them yourself.
