[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The setProxyExceptionList method specifies the proxy exception list.

Syntax

HRESULT setProxyExceptionList(
  [in] BSTR bstrProtocol,
  [in] BSTR pbstrExceptionList
);

Parameters

[in] bstrProtocol

BSTR containing the protocol name. For a list of supported protocols, see Supported Protocols and File Types.

[in] pbstrExceptionList

BSTR containing a semicolon-delimited list of hosts for which the proxy server is bypassed. Leading and trailing spaces should not be present.

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Return code	Description
S_OK	The method succeeded.

Remarks

This is a list of computers, domains, and/or addresses that will bypass the proxy server when the host portion of the target URL matches an entry in the list.

The * character can be used as a wildcard for listing entries. For example, .com would match all hosts in the com domain, while 67. would match all hosts in the 67 class A subnet.

This method has no effect unless the value retrieved from IWMPNetwork::getProxySettings is 2 (use manual settings).

This method fails unless the calling application is running on the local computer or intranet.

Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This method always returns E_INVALIDARG.
