patched DownloadBinaries
|
Created attachment 144603 [details] patched DownloadBinaries Today was the first time I tried to build the platform behind a corporate firewall that requires authentication. Unfortunately, DownloadBinaries doesn't support it proxy especially when authentication is required. I finally managed to patch the code so that it now works (it is attached to this issue). The usage is simple, you just need to define some system properties: * "http.proxyHost": the IP or name of the proxy * "http.proxyPort": the port If authentication is required (was my case): * "proxy.authentication.user": the user name. on windows probably you will need to prefix with the domain: DOMAIN\user * "proxy.authentication.password": obviously, the password I would really appreciate if my patch could be included in next releases of NB.
