Issue/Introduction
CORS Filter is the first universal solution for fitting Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support to Java web applications.
CORS is a recent W3C effort to introduce a standard mechanism for enabling cross-domain requests from web browsers to servers that wish to handle them.
Currently the webservices_rest probe does not have the CORS filter added.
Environment
UIM 9.02 webservices_rest probe 9.02
Resolution
Whilst the webservices_rest can support CORS it is not possible to manually modify the web.xml to add this as it is packed with the webservices_rest.war
Engineering has created a test patch that adds CORS to the webservices_rest probe see DE409698
