以编程方式设置默认代理而不是使用app.config

Question

Being behind a proxy, my .Net 4.0 C# application only works when there is an app.config with the following content:

<system.net>
    <defaultProxy enabled="true" useDefaultCredentials="true">
        <proxy />
        <bypasslist />
        <module />
    </defaultProxy>
</system.net>

Now since I don't want to have an app.config and since embedding app.config is not recommended, what is the C# code that has the same effect as that xml chunk in the app.config and where do I place it?

Answer 1

You can use WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy or GlobalProxySelection.Select

System.Net.GlobalProxySelection.Select = new WebProxy(ip,port);

OR

System.Net.WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy = new WebProxy(ip,port);

Answer 2

The following code worked for me:

System.Net.WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy.Credentials 
    = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;

Answer 3

you can use WebProxy from System.Net

WebProxy proxyObject = new WebProxy("PROXYIP",PORTNO);
WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create("http://www.stackoverflow.com");
req.Proxy = proxyObject;
