如何通过SOCKS代理使用URLConnection？

Question

How can I set the SOCKS proxy for a URLConnection given by (new URL(url)).openConnection() ?

Different proxies are needed on a per-connection basis, so please don't suggest setting system properties.

Answer 1

If you want to use different proxy settings on a per-connection bases, you can use the Java 6.0 ProxySelector mechanism as described in Java Networking and Proxies . Specifically, read sections 3 and 4.
