IJProxy sets the http proxy settings of the Java Virtual Machine for ImageJ

• Patrick Pirrotte: project maintainer (patrick@image-archive.or//g)

Since ImageJ v1.40, the proxy settings can be provided through the ImageJ interface. Tthus this plugin is obsolete and is only left here for teaching/historical reasons.

IJProxy modifies the proxy settings of the Java Virtual Machine. Settings are saved in key/value paris in the ImageJ preferences file (IJ_Prefs.txt). This allows machines which are behind a proxy and cannot directly access the outside world from within ImageJ to do so nevertheless (a typical example is opening the example images).

ImageJ allows to run macros/plugins at startup via StartUpMacros.txt. If you want to set the proxy automatically at startup add

macro “AutoRun” {run(“Set proxy”);}

to StartupMacros.txt, or edit the autorun macro accordingly.

These features have been implemented in IJProxy version 1.0:

• configurable settings through a GUI

The IJProxy_ is packaged as jar file.

• Download it from here (project hosted at www.image-archive.org)
  
• Copy the jar file to your ImageJ plugins folder
• Restart ImageJ. The plugin can be accessed through the ImageJ plugins menu
• To set the proxy on autostart do add

macro “AutoRun” {run(“Set proxy”);}

to StartupMacros.txt, or edit the autorun macro accordingly.
