My understanding is that the JVM implementation intercepts these
properties and establishes connections differently based on their value.
You should see the effect without needing to recompile or change either
your own application or the client library. (If your proxy requires
authentication then code changes may be necessary.)

I would suggest confirming that your JVM behaves as expected with the
supplied parameters by testing with a simpler piece of code first, and
then try the same with the library.
