Proxy settings in Java Control Panel affect only Java Web Start applications and applets.
For regular Java applications, you should use the following properties to configure proxy:
http.proxyHost
,http.proxyPort
, andhttp.nonProxyHosts
.https.proxyHost
,https.proxyPort
(HTTPS handler useshttp.nonProxyHosts
).ftp.proxyHost
,ftp.proxyPort
, andftp.nonProxyHosts
.
See Networking Properties for more details on configuring behavior of the various classes of the java.net package.
There's no built-in way to use automatic proxy configuration for regular Java applications. See answers to this question for various options to do it.

You must set the java environment proxy settings.
Check the Oracle guide.
