S60 3rd - local HTTP proxy

[neil.young]

I was wondering, whether it is possible to implement a local HTTP proxy, lurking e.g. at localhost:8080.

For now all my attemtps did fail: Neither the J2ME socket based approach (e.g. NetworkDemo) nor the nice Python TinyHTTPProxy do work. The problem seems to be, that

a) opening a server socket at localhost or
b) the communication between the access point (i.e. the definition of the access point), added with proxy settings

fails. The HTTP proxy seems to be not called at all if instantiated at localhost.

Does anybody of you have some info?

Check this one:

http://www.paniccode.com/?p=820

its a japanese pyS60 proxy, but maybe the code will help you.

Hmm. Thanks, but no source - no deal

BTW: I have to correct myself. BaseHTTPServer now works generally (so it is involved), but I stell cannot act as a real proxy.

To be continued.

It is very easy to take a look at the source code, just use any SIS file explorer, like SISXplorer.

I know the japanese programmer, and I can't tell you for sure the program license is open (my japanese is not so good at all), but he is encouraging people to modify some internal settings of the program.

Anyway, this was just a hint... just trying to help.

I already tried to unpack the SIS, using UnSIS, but failed.

SISXPlorer was a good hint. This tool made the trick.

Thanks

Hi Neil,

Another tool for unpacking sis is here (sisinfo).
