How to use anonimous proxy with QWebFrame.load

Hi to all,

i'm new to the forum and i'm a PyQt user.

My question is pretty conceptual, i need just an hint because i'm stuck on that.

I want to fetch an URL with QWebPage passing by a web anonimous proxy.

Using directly QWebPage.mainFrame().load(QUrl) works without problems.

If I try to set proxy with these methods (it's python but it's pretty easy to understand for C++ users

):

Qt Code:

Switch view

#setting up the proxy
 
proxy = QNetworkProxy()
proxy.setHostName("189.75.98.199") #just examples
proxy.setPort(1111)
proxy.setType = QNetworkProxy.HttpProxy
 
#setting the manager
 
manager = QNetworkAccessManager()
manager.setProxy(proxy) #setting the proxy on the manager
 
#setting the proxy as application proxy
 
QNetworkProxy.setApplicationProxy(proxy) #seems to do nothing..
 
#web page
 
webpage = QWebPage()
webpage.setNetworkAccessManager(manager) #maybe.. but it doesn't work
 
webpage.mainFrame().load(QUrl("http://www.foo.bar") )

#setting up the proxy

proxy = QNetworkProxy()
proxy.setHostName("189.75.98.199") #just examples
proxy.setPort(1111)
proxy.setType = QNetworkProxy.HttpProxy

#setting the manager

manager = QNetworkAccessManager()
manager.setProxy(proxy) #setting the proxy on the manager

#setting the proxy as application proxy

QNetworkProxy.setApplicationProxy(proxy) #seems to do nothing..

#web page

webpage = QWebPage()
webpage.setNetworkAccessManager(manager) #maybe.. but it doesn't work

webpage.mainFrame().load(QUrl("http://www.foo.bar") )

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

the QWebPage does the request ignoring my proxy, always directly.

What's wrong? I'm using in a wrong way my proxy? Or is it a conceptual problem?

Thanks
