[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 114227] Proxy settings disregarded for reporting crashes

--- Comment #2 from Aron Budea <baron at caesar.elte.hu> ---
There is an incomplete patch on gerrit:
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/51621/

This handles the fixed proxy setting coming from LibreOffice, but that is
highly undesirable because of a serious problem with that dialog: bug 33697.
Additionally, it doesn't handle automatic configuration scripts, because
ucbhelper::InternetProxyDecider can't handle those, either.

Adding that support would be a large-scale change with risks, plus rounding out
the OS-dependent parts might be difficult. And for crash reporter, Windows is
the most important, so adding a Windows-specific query in
CrashReporter::writeCommonInfo() could be a sufficient measure (maybe
WinHttpGetProxyForUrl() [1]). If that returns no proxy, then LO setting can be
queried, otherwise use what Windows provides.
