Using a Proxy with the R Type Provider about rprovider HOT 3 CLOSED

The RProvider doesn't make any HTTP requests itself, so does not need to be proxy aware. What you are experiencing is an issue with the example script, which requests stock data via the WebClient.

You can set the proxy on the web client like so:
client.Proxy = new WebProxy("proxy server url here")

However, I don't know of a way of picking up the proxy settings from internet explorer automatically, so you would just need to make a local modification to the script.

Thanks Howard!

To pick up the settings from IE, you can use

. WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy.Credentials <- CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials

I had a similar problem using FSharp.Data at work and that fixed it.
