[Interest] Issues with HTTPS, Google Maps, SSL, proxy & Qt 5.1

OK, so when I am in an environment that is using a proxy, the code I posted
to setup QNetworkProxy will just work for both HTTP and HTTPS?

If so, that's great but I can't test it now.  My *immediate* problem is that
even when there is no proxy (such as right now), my attempt to display
Google Maps fails with the error:

> Unable to init SSL Context:

Any ideas why?

You don't have to do anything. After you set this proxy with
QNetworkProxy::setApplicationProxy, QTcpSocket and QNetworkAccessManager
will automatically start using the proxy and will issue the command on their
own.
