290781 - Minimo has hardcoded UA string and so version and Gecko string

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Minimo Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Adam Hauner]

It looks like Minimo has preference to force static user-agent string, so
version  or Gecko string doesn't update:

http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/embedding/minimo/all.js#90

90 pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Familiar 0.72;
en-US; rv:1.7a) Gecko/20040218 Minimo/0.1");

Attachment: http ua patch

This patch makes us construct a UA string that looks something like:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows CE; U; Windows CE 4.20; rv:1.8b3) Gecko/20050720
<product>/<productSub>

This is a window ce only change.

For WinCE:

Checking in nsHttpHandler.cpp;
/cvsroot/mozilla/netwerk/protocol/http/src/nsHttpHandler.cpp,v  <-- 
nsHttpHandler.cpp
new revision: 1.114; previous revision: 1.113
done


I have also changed the UA string for WINCE to:
pref("general.useragent.extra.minimo", "Minimo/0.007");

Checking in all.js;
/cvsroot/mozilla/embedding/minimo/wince/all.js,v  <--  all.js
new revision: 1.9; previous revision: 1.8
done


leaving open for Linux changes.
