The https protocol is implemented by the LightweightHttpWagon component which does not support https proxy

I need to access an https repository behind a proxy.

I got this error : "java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect" which makes me think that the request is send directly to the remote server and not to the proxy.

These docs :
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/security/jsse/samples/README.txt
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/net/proxies.html
describe the "https.proxyHost" and "https.proxyPort" properties.

I tried them on the 1.4.2 Jdk and it works.

Do you want me to post a patch ?

Thanks, Thomas
