Is the ProxyServer specified as an URL? If yes then use the proper API to dissect the URL instead of cobbling something together.
Just to follow up in this idea, you could use InternetCrackUrl. mshtml delay loads wininet, but it also loads urlmon, which also loads wininet, so in effect wininet is always loaded and available.
But a larger question is, why load the proxy settings from the registry only? If you query wininet for them instead, then the environment variable http_proxy is also checked. There was bug 5625 about this, which I set to fixed based on commit 80f02b82d68902f32578a7bcf6cfbaa715b724ce. I may have been mistaken. Under what circumstances is the network.proxy.http gecko setting still being used? Maybe for embedded content, e.g. IMG tags? If these were set by querying wininet instead, then at least we wouldn't have potentially different proxy settings for some HTTP requests than for others. --Juan
just sent a patch doing that. I'm not sure for what winegecko uses it, but that function was added by intention and jacek already modified it a bit, so there must be a reason.
