Connect to a site using proxy code in java
- by Nithin
I want to connect to as site through proxy in java.This is the code which I have written
public class ConnectThroughProxy {
Proxy proxy = new Proxy(Proxy.Type.HTTP, new InetSocketAddress("proxy ip", 8080));
public static void main(String[] args) {
try{
URL url = new URL("http://www.rgagnon.com/javadetails/java-0085.html");
URLConnection connection=url.openConnection();
String encoded = new String(Base64.encode(new String("user_name:pass_word").getBytes()));
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setRequestProperty("Proxy-Authorization","Basic "+encoded);
String page="";
String line;
StringBuffer tmp = new StringBuffer();
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(connection.getInputStream()));
while ((line=in.readLine()) != null){
page.concat(line + "\n");
}
System.out.println(page);
}catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
while trying to run this code it throws the following error
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character(s) in message header value: Basic dXNlcl9uYW1lOnBhc3Nfd29yZA==
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.checkMessageHeader(HttpURLConnection.java:323)
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.setRequestProperty(HttpURLConnection.java:2054)
at test.ConnectThroughProxy.main(ConnectThroughProxy.java:30)
Any Idea how to do it.
