Window client application 使用IE的http代理配置访问外网


IE的proxy配置有3种:
1. 指定proxy server的ip和port
2. Automatically detect settings: WPAD
3. Use automatic configuration url: 指定PAC文件url


Firefox/Opera/Chrome都是使用IE的proxy配置.我们通过WinHttp DLL中的api可以拿到这个配置对应的proxy server和port.
Mac上可以使用系统设置里面的proxy setting,  CFProxySupport API.



WPAD是Web Proxy Auto Discovery的缩写，意思是Web代理服务器自动发现(通过dhcp/dns)
