CORS

This allows for browser based requests to a libossia http server... so that we can create browser based UIs that do OSCQuery discovery.

I guess I should rebase on origin? maybe just cherry-pick that commit if you want it?

Looks good, thanks ! If I understand correctly this means that a web page on e.g. example.com will accept to do a request to an oscquery server located at bar.com:1234, right ?

indeed since it's one line I'll just cherry-pick it on master

I imagine there are some security implications around this, I'll add it to the (upcoming) github kanban board regarding network security in libossia so that we can review more in depth if for instance there are settings that should be provided to the user, etc... in the meantime thanks for the patch !

yeah, its a browser that controls the acceptance or not but, exactly... a webpage served from example.com can do an HTTP request to an oscquery http server bar.com:5678 (i changed to default ports)

the * just allows any webpage to do the request.. example.com foo.com localhost etc.

yeah, maybe this would want to be a configurable thing eventually.. but in the short term, i'm excited to make some web based UI for my libossia based project!
