Demonstrates how to connect to an SFTP/SSH server through an HTTP proxy. Chilkat2 Java

public class ChilkatExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
        // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

        SFtp sftp = new SFtp();

        // To connect through an HTTP proxy, set the HttpProxyHostname
        // and HttpProxyPort properties to the hostname (or IP address)
        // and port of the HTTP proxy.  Typical port numbers used by
        // HTTP proxy servers are 3128 and 8080.
        sftp.setHttpProxyHostname("www.my-http-proxy.com");
        sftp.setHttpProxyPort(3128);

        // Important:  Your HTTP proxy server must allow non-HTTP
        // traffic to pass.  Otherwise this does not work.

        // Connect to the SSH server through the HTTP proxy.

            sftp.connect("sftp.example.com", 22);
