Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-1889:
--------------------------------------
We should re-work the whitelist use -- right now it appears each instance of
CDVViewController can have a separate whitelist (through its whitelist
property), but the use of the global whitelist (taken from the first registered
CDVViewController) in CDVURLProtocol belies this.
> White-list exception enhancements for plugins
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-1889
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1889
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: iOS
> Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
> Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
> Fix For: 2.3.0
>
>
> See CB-1695
> 1. CDVViewController needs a UserAgent property that plugins can query, so
> they can set their NSURLRequest User-Agent to the same UserAgent, so they can
> take advantage of the white-list. Right now, any other network connection
> that is not part of the main Cordova UIWebView is excepted from the
> white-list with the changes in CB-1695.
> 2. Have a way for plugins to query the whitelist before sending out requests
> 3. The UA in (1) should be cached after being discovered (since it requires a
> costly UIWebView instantation the first time). Cache the iOS version as well,
> so that we invalidate the UA if the iOS version changes. Also, hook into
> locale change notifications, if a locale change happens, invalidate the
> cached UA value as well.
