WebProxy::GetDefaultProxy Method ()
Reads the Internet Explorer nondynamic proxy settings.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
public: [ObsoleteAttribute("This method has been deprecated. Please use the proxy selected for you by default. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=14202")] static WebProxy^ GetDefaultProxy()
Return Value
Type: System.Net::WebProxy^A WebProxy instance that contains the nondynamic proxy settings from Internet Explorer 5.5 and later.
The GetDefaultProxy method reads the nondynamic proxy settings stored by Internet Explorer 5.5 and later, and creates a WebProxy instance with those settings.
The GetDefaultProxy method does not pick up any dynamic settings that are generated from scripts run by Internet Explorer, from automatic configuration entries, or from DHCP or DNS lookups.
Applications should use the WebRequest::DefaultWebProxy property and the WebRequest::GetSystemWebProxy method instead of the GetDefaultProxy method.
The following code example demonstrates calling this method.
void CheckDefaultProxyForRequest( Uri^ resource ) { WebProxy^ proxy = (WebProxy^)( WebProxy::GetDefaultProxy() ); // See what proxy is used for resource. Uri^ resourceProxy = proxy->GetProxy( resource ); // Test to see whether a proxy was selected. if ( resourceProxy == resource ) { Console::WriteLine( "No proxy for {0}", resource ); } else { Console::WriteLine( "Proxy for {0} is {1}", resource, resourceProxy ); } }
