    private static final String PROXY_HOST = System.getProperty("https.proxyHost", PROXY_H);
    private static final String PROXY_PORT = System.getProperty("https.proxyPort", PROXY_P);

  3. Search for the following line:

    Copy 
    private static HttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create()
