I did see that API in the google search I originally did, but since

Cocoa in Carbon can be tricky for UI stuff, but for non-UI stuff like
this, it's pretty trivial. If you're using Xcode you can just change
the extension on your source file to ".m" and start writing
Objective-C. If you're using CodeWarrior, there are some gotchas (you
have to be building Mach-O, for example), but it shouldn't be too
difficult.
Very cool. I am using Xcode full time now, so glad I wouldn't have do
deal with the gotchas.
The flip side though is that I could just choose not to support this
proxy mode. I've had no customer complaints about this with the
URLAccess implementation. So in theory, they won't miss it either
with my CFNetwork implementation :)
Indeed. And if someone complains, you can always address the issue
later.
[The following is speculation; I'm not really an HTTP expert.]
I believe that you still can do it in CFNetwork by trapping the errors
and showing your own UI. I believe that's what the Foundation URL
Loading System does. It's just a little more work.
This also sounds doable. Thanks again for your help on this.
