[ruby-core:67310] [ruby-trunk - Feature #10652] Automatic detection of user and password from env

Issue #10652 has been updated by Rafael Silva.


I've sent the patch because this behavior is the expected since many unix tools (curl, wget, apt-get) and programming languagues (nodejs, python) respect the environment variable http_proxy.

This makes very hard to use some ruby tools in the enterprise world, where the proxy is required, and you try to use a gem or program that didn't care to be proxy compliant.

* Author: Rafael Silva
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: Ayumu AIZAWA
* Category: lib
* Target version: Next Major
----------------------------------------
Get user and pass from http_proxy variable when specified, so that NET::HTTP can handle connections behind authenticated proxies automatically.

I'm new, so please correct me if this isn't the correct way to go.

Also, I've open a PR on github at [[https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/763]]
