CORS support for wsworkunit server

[lillianm]

I am trying to access the information from one of our workunits with javascript to generate reports. This used to work fine when I was running it on the same server as ECL watch. Since I have moved my javascript to another server I am running into errors related to the same-origin policy. These are indicating that the ECL watch server does not support CORS (the mechanism that supports cross domain requests). Is there any way to configure the server to support cross domain requests (via CORS) from my server?

There was a previous discussion of this here:
https://hpccsystems.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=1988&p=8452#p8452

And a JIRA was opened: https://track.hpccsystems.com/browse/HPCC-14493

Note that it was also recommended to try using jsonp, which may help you as well.
