Put the Proxy Account in CXF's HTTP Conduit

Configure CXF's ProxyServer policy and proxyAuthorization account on the conduit used by a SOAP client.

A CXF SOAP client can carry its proxy configuration on the HTTP conduit. The client policy selects the endpoint, while proxyAuthorization supplies the intermediary's account:

<http-conf:conduit name="{urn:reports}ReportsPort.http-conduit">
  <http-conf:proxyAuthorization>
    <sec:UserName>PROXY_USER</sec:UserName>
    <sec:Password>PROXY_PASSWORD</sec:Password>
    <sec:AuthorizationType>Basic</sec:AuthorizationType>
  </http-conf:proxyAuthorization>
  <http-conf:client ProxyServer="proxy.example" ProxyServerPort="8080" />
</http-conf:conduit>

This fragment assumes the existing CXF configuration declares the HTTP-conduit and security namespaces. Replace the example port QName with the client port being configured; a correct block attached to another conduit cannot affect this call.

The host and numeric port describe the forward proxy. The proxyAuthorization block is the schema's specific proxy-account setting. CXF also has an authorization element for the destination's credentials. The proxy and destination accounts remain separate.

The Basic type shown must match a scheme the proxy accepts and the chosen CXF transport can use. Once the matching conduit is loaded, operations sent through it receive that client policy and account configuration.
