httplib and proxies

Hello,

is it possible to get a webpage with httplib (or any other python
library) through a proxy server ? Can't find anything about this in
the documentation.

If you use urllib, you might want to try adding an empty dictionary:
proxies={} to your urllib.urlopen.
This enabled us to get past a Windows proxy server.

Hi, I am having a problem with the httplib HTTPConnection object. While I can easily send requests that don't have any payload (ie. "get"), I encounter issues if I want to post xml data. If you look at the class below, when req == 'getFreeBusyInfo' all functions perfectly, but when req == 'conflictRequest' I run into problems of the nature "400 Bad Request". As you will notice, I also tried the shorter HTTPConnection instance method...

How can I set httplib timeout for httplib.request() ? httplib.request timeouts after 3:10 with "socket" timeout error message. I found socket.settimeout() and I believe there is a way to add ".settimeout()" function to httplib without hacking httplib source. Is it possible? --

Hi. I'm having some problems with code based directly on the following httplib documentation code: http://www.zvon.org/other/python/doc21/lib/httplib-examples.html I've included the code and traceback at the end of this post. The odd thing is, using DEPRECATED FUNCTIONS to perform the same function works fine!

Hi all, Has anyone ever seen Python 2.4.1's httplib choke when reading chunked content? I'm using it via urrlib2, and I ran into a particular server that returns something that httplib doesn't expect. Specifically, in the code below where the error occurs, line == ''.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
