Setting Proxy IP and Port in android code?

Question

Is there any way to add Proxy IP and Port in android application so that the internet access will be routed through the Proxy?

From a link i got the information

try { Settings.System.putString(getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.HTTP_PROXY, "127.0.0.1:100");//enable proxy }catch (Exception ex){ }

But by trying this System variable cannot be resolved?

Please help!!

Thanks in advance

Can you clarify your question? Do you want to add a proxy for web access via a browser? Why would your app want to change the browser proxy? — Christine

HttpURLConnection con =null;

URL url = new URL("xxxxx");

Proxy proxy=new Proxy(java.net.Proxy.Type.HTTP, new InetSocketAddress(android.net.Proxy.getDefaultHost(),android.net.Proxy.getDefaultPort()));

con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection(proxy);

Is this okay?
