Network.getProxyBypassForLocal 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 getProxyBypassForLocal method retrieves a value indicating whether the proxy server is bypassed if the origin server is on a local network.
Syntax
bRetVal = Network.getProxyBypassForLocal(
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 Boolean indicating whether the proxy server is bypassed. 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.getProxyBypassForLocal to display whether Windows Media Player is set to bypass the proxy server for local addresses. 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 bypass for local value for HTTP.
var proxyBypassForLocalHTTP = Player.network.getProxyBypassForLocal("HTTP");
// Test whether the MMS proxy settings are manual.
if (Player.network.getProxySettings("MMS") == 2)
// Get the proxy bypass for local value for MMS.
var proxyBypassForLocalMMS = Player.network.getProxyBypassForLocal("MMS");
// Display the proxy bypass for local values in the browser client area.
// Unavailable proxy bypass for local values will display as "undefined".
document.write("The current HTTP proxy bypass for local value: " + proxyBypassForLocalHTTP);
document.write("<BR>");
document.write("The current MMS proxy bypass for local value: " + proxyBypassForLocalMMS);
