I have a spring application that needs to interact with twitter API, hence I am using spring social twitter module.

To interact with twitter API, I need to get a bean of type TwitterTemplate

The code that creates the bean is easy as creating a normal java object.

TwitterTemplate template = new TwitterTemplate(consumerKey, consumerSecret, accessToken, accessTokenSecret)

I need to configure the template to work behind a proxy.

How can I achieve that?
