Network.getProxyPort method
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 getProxyPort method retrieves the proxy port being used.
Syntax
retVal = Network.getProxyPort(
protocol
)
Parameters
-
protocol [in]
-
String specifying the protocol name. For a list of supported protocols, see Supported Protocols and File Types.
Return value
This method returns a Number (long) containing the proxy port being used. The value returned is meaningful only when getProxySettings returns a value of two (use manual settings).
Remarks
This method fails unless the calling application is running on the local computer or intranet.
Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This method is not supported.
Examples
The following JScript example uses Network.getProxyPort to display the current Windows Media Player proxy port numbers for the MMS and HTTP protocols. The Player object was created with ID = "Player".
// Test whether the HTTP proxy settings are manual.
if (Player.network.getProxySettings("HTTP") == 2)
// Get the proxy port number for HTTP.
var proxyPortHTTP = Player.network.getProxyPort("HTTP");
// Test whether the MMS proxy settings are manual.
if (Player.network.getProxySettings("MMS") == 2)
// Get the proxy port number for MMS.
var proxyPortMMS = Player.network.getProxyPort("MMS");
// Display the port numbers in the browser client area.
// Unavailable port numbers will display as "undefined".
document.write("The current HTTP proxy port is: " + proxyPortHTTP);
document.write("<BR>");
document.write("The current MMS proxy port is: " + proxyPortMMS);
