I have a Windows form application that’s consuming web services over https and is working perfectly. Do I have to make any arrangement in my code for the case when the user has an Internet connection through a proxy server?
I think you’re ok. Here’s an easy way to tell: Run Fiddler2 and it’ll insert itself as a proxy. While it’s running, you’ll see the proxy setting in Internet Explorer is set to localhost:8888 or something like that. Try your app, and see if the traffic goes through fiddler. If so, then I think you’ll be ok. Note that java-stack apps like SoapUI, will NOT automatically be routed through fiddler, as that would need its own proxy. i.e. it won’t follow the IE proxy settings.
