[Geotools-gt2-users] Problems with requesting Features from a WSF Version 2.0.0 and using a HTTP proxy

[<sus...@da...>]

Hello,

I am using geotools Version 28.1. When requesting Features from a WSF 
Version 2.0.0 and using a HTTP proxy for the requests I get the following 
Exception.

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.HashMap cannot be cast to 
org.opengis.feature.simple.SimpleFeature

ContentFeatureCollection.java:173)
        at org.geotools.data.store.ContentFeatureCollection.features(
ContentFeatureCollection.java:52)

The problem is that the ParserHandler wants to load the Schema for the 
DescribeFeatureType URL directly. This leads to a 
java.net.SocketTimeoutException, because the used HTTP proxy is ignored.

Is there a way to tell the Parserhandler the Proxy Information? Or is 
there another way to load the Schema for the DescribeFeatureType?

Kind regards
