Question

Is someone able to assist in helping understand how to get this C# example working through my proxy server. I note there is a code sample at http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/articles/proxy_setup.html#dotnet, that provides some direction, however I’m having trouble regarding how to apply this to the DocListExporter example. In other words:

How do I apply the code concept here (with proxy):

  CalendarService service = new CalendarService("CalendarSampleApp");
  GDataRequestFactory requestFactory = (GDataRequestFactory)
  service.RequestFactory;
  WebProxy myProxy = new WebProxy("http://my.proxy.example.com:3128/",true);
  // potentially, setup credentials on the proxy here
  myProxy.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
  myProxy.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
  requestFactory.Proxy = myProxy;

To the following code from the example:

           GoogleClientLogin loginDialog = new GoogleClientLogin(new DocumentsService("GoogleDocumentsSample"), "[e-mail]");
            if (loginDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                RequestSettings settings = new RequestSettings("GoogleDocumentsSample", loginDialog.Credentials);
                settings.AutoPaging = true;
                settings.PageSize = 100;
                if (settings != null)
                {
                    this.request = new DocumentsRequest(settings);
                    this.Text = "Successfully logged in";

                    Feed<Document> feed = this.request.GetEverything();
                    // this takes care of paging the results in
                    foreach (Document entry in feed.Entries)
                    {
                        all.Add(entry);
                    }

Also if you know the syntax for how to include the actual proxy username/password that would be cool too.

thanks

Have tried setting up the proxy in your app.config file ?

something like this –

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