Re: ProxySelector2

> A question for Peter, is the connection test supposed to pass when the
proxy is detected automatically by the plugin?

Yes. Although this has nothing to do - as such - with the plugin. It is
standard NetBeans stuff.

When developing the plugin I've of course looked at the all the relevant
Network Proxy related code in core  NB. I would say that I've been through
every line of code. One thing that has baffled me
is that it seems to me that there's some duplication in the sense that the
testProxy() method (in NB core) tries to establish its own isolated proxy
context, solely for the purpose of the test. This may or may not be equal
to the actual ProxySelector that the NB Platform will use. All in all
succeeding in the "Test Connection" is in this way no guarantee that NB can
establish connections successfully. Why this is made so, I don't know.
