Kaloyan Raev commented on JBIDE-18404:
--------------------------------------

I experience serious troubles with CordovaSim after this switch to using the Remote cross domain proxy. Setting the Cross Domain Proxy to Remote means that all calls go through a cloud-based proxy server hosted at https://rippleapi.herokuapp.com/xhr_proxy. More info is available here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RIPPLE-63

In addition to the security issues, this also breaks mobile apps which tries to talk to a backend on localhost or to a remote server in the user's intranet - the cloud-based proxy just cannot connect to such backends. I also experience troubles with backends hosted on AWS. These are a quite common use cases during development of mobile apps.

Of course, users can switch the Cross Domain Proxy to Local or Disabled, but (1) this takes some painful hours to realize, and (2) it has to be done every time the simulator is started. All this ruins the user experience.

Was setting the default value to Remote really necessary to resolve this issue? I see it was just one of many changes done. Is it possible to revert it back to Local as the default?
