Description

Currently the client api allows only proxy_host and proxy_port to be specified. However in most corporate environments the proxy servers require the client to authenticate itself with username/password before it is allowed to connect to internet. This is therefore a critical functionality to allow the use of axis2/c in corpotrate environments.
