/**
 * EXPERIMENTAL and subject to change. Do not use this in production code.
 * <p>
 *
 * </p>
 * RPC service to generate XSRF tokens.
 * <p>
 * Sample use of {@link XsrfTokenService}:
 *
 * <ol>
 * <li> Add {@link XsrfTokenServiceServlet} to {@code web.xml}:
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;servlet&gt;
 *   &lt;servlet-name&gt;xsrf&lt;/servlet-name&gt;
 *   &lt;servlet-class&gt;
 *     com.google.gwt.user.server.rpc.XsrfTokenServiceServlet
 *   &lt;/servlet-class&gt;
 * &lt;/servlet&gt;
 * &lt;servlet-mapping&gt;
 *   &lt;servlet-name&gt;xsrf&lt;/servlet-name&gt;
 *   &lt;url-pattern&gt;/gwt/xsrf&lt;/url-pattern&gt;
 * &lt;/servlet-mapping&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <li> Specify session cookie name that is used for authentication. MD5 hash of
 * the session cookie's value will be used as an XSRF token:
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;context-param&gt;
 *   &lt;param-name&gt;gwt.xsrf.session_cookie_name&lt;/param-name&gt;
 *   &lt;param-value>JSESSIONID&lt;/param-value&gt;
 * &lt;/context-param&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <li> To enforce XSRF token validation on each method call either mark RPC
 * interface as XSRF protected using {@link XsrfProtect} annotation or extend
 * {@link com.google.gwt.user.client.rpc.XsrfProtectedService} instead of
 * RemoteService. Use {@link NoXsrfProtect} to mark methods as not requiring
 * XSRF protection:
 *
 * <pre class="code">
 * public interface MyRpcService extends XsrfProtectedService {
 *   public void doStuff();
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <li> Ensure that RPC's servlet implementation extends {@link
 * XsrfProtectedServiceServlet} instead of {@link RemoteServiceServlet}:
 *
 * <pre class="code">
 * public class MyRpcServiceServlet extends XsrfProtectedServiceServlet
 *     implements MyRpcService {
 *
 *   public void doStuff() {
 *     // ...
 *   }
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <li> Obtain {@link XsrfToken} and set it on the RPC end point:
 *
 * <pre class="code">
 * XsrfTokenServiceAsync xsrf = (XsrfTokenServiceAsync)GWT.create(XsrfTokenService.class);
 *
 * ((ServiceDefTarget)xsrf).setServiceEntryPoint(GWT.getModuleBaseURL() + "xsrf");
 *
 * xsrf.getNewXsrfToken(new AsyncCallback&lt;XsrfToken&gt;() {
 *   public void onSuccess(XsrfToken result) {
 *     MyRpcServiceAsync rpc = (MyRpcServiceAsync)GWT.create(MyRpcService.class);
 *     ((HasRpcToken) rpc).setRpcToken(result);
 *     // make XSRF protected RPC call
 *     rpc.doStuff(new AsyncCallback&lt;Void&gt;() {
 *       // ...
 *     });
 *
 *   }
 *
 *   public void onFailure(Throwable caught) {
 *     try {
 *       throw caught;
 *     } catch (RpcTokenException e) {
 *       // Can be thrown for several reasons:
 *       //   - duplicate session cookie, which may be a sign of a cookie
 *       //     overwrite attack
 *       //   - XSRF token cannot be generated because session cookie isn't
 *       //     present
 *     } catch (Throwable e) {
 *       // unexpected
 *     }
 * });
 * </pre>
 * </ol>
 * </p>
