45127 - Wrong URL string used to construct kRDF_type object

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Java APIs to WebShell, defect, P3)

Description

[Alexei V. Mokeev]

in rdf_util.cpp#123 the string "http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#" used
to get kRDF_type. But in Mozilla's rdf.h#55 the RDF_NAMESPACE_URI defined as
"http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" ,
and used to get kRDF_type.

So, problems can appear when transfer kRDF_type between Webclient and Mozilla's
code, because they are differ.

I tried it with the other URL, and bookmarks no longer worked.  I'm sticking
with #define NC_NAMESPACE_URI   "http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#"
.

Marking invalid.

Reopen.
Please look at the part of code of nsBookmarksService.cpp#230 :
...
 gRDF->GetResource(NC_NAMESPACE_URI "Name",                &kNC_Name);
 gRDF->GetResource(NC_NAMESPACE_URI "ShortcutURL",        &kNC_ShortcutURL);
 gRDF->GetResource(NC_NAMESPACE_URI "URL",                &kNC_URL);
 gRDF->GetResource(RDF_NAMESPACE_URI "type",              &kRDF_type);
 gRDF->GetResource(RDF_NAMESPACE_URI "nextVal",           &kRDF_nextVal)
...
and note that really two different URI's used to construct different resources:
"http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" is used to get kRDF_type,
kRDF_nextVal, etc ...

and 
"http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#" is used to get kNC_Name,kNC_URL, etc ..

But in webclient code (rdf_util.cpp) one "http://home.netscape.com/NC-rdf#"
is used to get ALL.

So from current point of view this bug is valid:
Wrong URL used to construct kRDF_type
