Eric Wittmann resolved RTGOV-207.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Done


Resolved by implementing a proxy servlet that lives in gadget-web and proxies requests to /overlord-rtgov/service/dependency/overview while setting appropriate authentication.

> Security is now enabled on rtgov REST services, which has highlighted an issue with the service overview gadget.
> After normal SSO signin, when the service overview gadget is added to the page, its first interaction with the server results in a login dialog being displayed.
> On investigation, Eric found that the gadget's xml includes a direct request to the overlord-rtgov REST service to retrieve the SVG, which is bypassing the gadget IO layer.
> Eric's suggestion is to create an SVG proxy servlet in gadget-web.war, which can deal with the authentication.
