[jira] [Commented] (SHINDIG-1765) Replace the unparseable cruft message "throw 1; < don't be evil' >" constant in client and server with a container config

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-1765?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13268047#comment-13268047 ]

Review request for Ryan Baxter, Dan Dumont and Stanton Sievers.


Summary
-------

The gadget io request will inject a unparseable cruft message "throw 1; < don't be evil' >" in the response content intentionally for security reasons.
However, this "throw 1; < don't be evil' >" string has been hardcoded in:
features/src/main/javascript/features/core.io/io.js
java/gadgets/src/main/java/org/apache/shindig/gadgets/servlet/MakeRequestHandler.java

It would be good to extract the message into a container config, so:
- client and server can reuse the same message.
- Shindig consumers can replace the message with their own. 


This addresses bug SHINDIG-1765.

Testing
-------

Tested by trying a few other messages in the container.js, the replaced message show up in the response correctly.


Thanks,

Marshall
