(C# UWP/WinRT) OAuth2 using an HTTP Proxy (for a Desktop Application)

Demonstrates how to send OAuth2 communications through an HTTP proxy for a desktop application. The technique is the same for all OAuth2 applications. This one happens to demonstrate for Microsoft Graph.

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// To use an HTTP proxy with OAuth2, create a Chilkat socket object and specify the details.
Chilkat.Socket socket = new Chilkat.Socket();
// Use your HTTP proxy server domain or IP address.
socket.HttpProxyHostname = "myproxyserver.com";
// Change this to the listening port of your HTTP proxy server (if necessary)
socket.HttpProxyPort = 808;
// Specify login/password if needed.
socket.HttpProxyUsername = "myProxyLogin";
socket.HttpProxyPassword = "myProxyPassword";
socket.HttpProxyForHttp = true;

Chilkat.OAuth2 oauth2 = new Chilkat.OAuth2();
bool success;

// We don't need to connect the socket beforehand.
// Just tell oauth2 to use the socket which has the HTTP proxy properties.
success = oauth2.UseConnection(socket);

// This should be the port in the localhost callback URL for your app.  
// The callback URL would look like "http://localhost:3017/" if the port number is 3017.
oauth2.ListenPort = 3017;

oauth2.AuthorizationEndpoint = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/authorize";
oauth2.TokenEndpoint = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/v2.0/token";

// Replace these with actual values.
oauth2.ClientId = "MICROSOFT-GRAPH-CLIENT-ID";
// This is your app password:
oauth2.ClientSecret = "MICROSOFT-GRAPH-CLIENT-SECRET";

oauth2.CodeChallenge = false;
// Provide a SPACE separated list of scopes.
// See https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/authorization/permission_scopes 

// Important: To get a refresh token in the final response, you have to ask for "offline_access" scope
oauth2.Scope = "openid profile offline_access user.readwrite mail.readwrite mail.send files.readwrite";

// Begin the OAuth2 three-legged flow.  This returns a URL that should be loaded in a browser.
string url = oauth2.StartAuth();
if (oauth2.LastMethodSuccess != true) {
    Debug.WriteLine(oauth2.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// At this point, your application should load the URL in a browser.
// For example, 
// in C#: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(url);
// in Java: Desktop.getDesktop().browse(new URI(url));
// in VBScript: Set wsh=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
//              wsh.Run url
// in Xojo: ShowURL(url)  (see http://docs.xojo.com/index.php/ShowURL)
// in Dataflex: Runprogram Background "c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" sUrl        
// The Microsoft account owner would interactively accept or deny the authorization request.

// Add the code to load the url in a web browser here...
// Add the code to load the url in a web browser here...
// Add the code to load the url in a web browser here...

// Now wait for the authorization.
// We'll wait for a max of 30 seconds.

while ((numMsWaited < 30000) && (oauth2.AuthFlowState < 3)) {
    oauth2.SleepMs(100);
    numMsWaited = numMsWaited + 100;
}

// If there was no response from the browser within 30 seconds, then 
// the AuthFlowState will be equal to 1 or 2.
// 1: Waiting for Redirect. The OAuth2 background thread is waiting to receive the redirect HTTP request from the browser.
// 2: Waiting for Final Response. The OAuth2 background thread is waiting for the final access token response.
// In that case, cancel the background task started in the call to StartAuth.
if (oauth2.AuthFlowState < 3) {
    oauth2.Cancel();
    Debug.WriteLine("No response from the browser!");
    return;
}

// Check the AuthFlowState to see if authorization was granted, denied, or if some error occurred
// The possible AuthFlowState values are:
// 3: Completed with Success. The OAuth2 flow has completed, the background thread exited, and the successful JSON response is available in AccessTokenResponse property.
// 4: Completed with Access Denied. The OAuth2 flow has completed, the background thread exited, and the error JSON is available in AccessTokenResponse property.
// 5: Failed Prior to Completion. The OAuth2 flow failed to complete, the background thread exited, and the error information is available in the FailureInfo property.
if (oauth2.AuthFlowState == 5) {
    Debug.WriteLine("OAuth2 failed to complete.");
    Debug.WriteLine(oauth2.FailureInfo);
    return;

json.Load(oauth2.AccessTokenResponse);
json.EmitCompact = false;

// The JSON response looks like this:

// {

// If an "expires_on" member does not exist, then add the JSON member by
// getting the current system date/time and adding the "expires_in" seconds.
// This way we'll know when the token expires.
