ProxySearch.getDefaultProxySearch().getProxySelector(); returning null

[andrew-sumner]

ProxySearch.getDefaultProxySearch().getProxySelector(); returns null on my MacBook and in Travis (https://travis-ci.org).

Not sure if this expected behaviour when not behind a proxy in Linux but it doesn't happen in windows.

Same thing, it doesn't matter if I define strategies or use the default. In my case on windows 10 (1903) and java 8.

Just encountered this while using IntelliJ IDEA. I haven't investigated this issue further... it's not much of a big deal but I thought it's worth mentioning.

Cannot select using PAC
