title: google app engine proxy workaround
body: <p>I am trying to build a google app engine app in Java.  The app is trying to get information from another site.  On my computer I am behind a firewall and need to connect to the site through a proxy.  Google app engine does not allow the use of java.net.proxy.  Is there a way to configure eclipse so it knows that when I use URL.getContent() my local host will connect to that url through a proxy??</p>
