Dojo XMLHttpRequest.withCredentials support

[ishenkoyv]

I'm building REST API server with role based subdomains, e.g. api.admin.example.com, api.client.example.com. REST API authentication server currenly supports only 2 ways to authenticate - session based authentication for example.com and http basic authentication. That's why I want to use CORS requests with withCredentials. There is related closed ticket to add withCredentials support to dojo ​https://bugs.dojotoolkit.org/ticket/11820 and 1.9.1 already has it. But I don't see any information about browsers support. In tests I can see some notes like

Note: this isn't really testing much unless you are using IE8 (XDomainRequest)

. There are also discussions on stackoverflow like this ​http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14587347/dojo-cross-domain-access-is-denied. Does dojo fully supports withCredentials including IE8, IE9, IE10? Or what broswers are supported?

Another question. From http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.9/dojo/store.html

The following two core stores based on the typical pattern of in-memory and server-based data stores:
dojo/store/Memory
...

dojo/store/JsonRest

How can I use JsonRest? with CORS withCredentials if I can't pass withCredentials option to request?

return xhr("GET", {                                                                                    
            url: this.target + id,                                                                             
            handleAs: "json",                                                                                  
            headers: headers                                                                                   
        });

Should I implement my own store? I can't find any info about this at http://dojotoolkit.org/

I have tried to ask these questions at dojo IRC but with no answer.

I set ticket type to enhancement

1. withCredentials support including IE browsers
2. JsonRest? store withCredentials support
