Android Proxy Library (APL) provides an abstraction layer to easily get the proxy settings from an Android device, in order to find a better and easy solution to the Android's Issue 1273 for both developers and users. Since it has been clarified from Google's spokesman that the versions 1.x-2.x won't receive an official proxy support, APL allows to abstract the device version and easily get the proxy settings on every released Android device.

Core features

• Version agnostic support (supported all Android versions: 1.x - 2.x - 3.x - 4.x)
• 1.x and 2.x versions support only one global proxy for every Wi-Fi AP.
• 3.x and greater versions support Wi-Fi AP-based proxy settings.
• Proxy testing utilities (proxy reachability, web reachability)
