[jira] [Commented] (CB-7285) Add Manufacturer info to device plugin
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7285?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14277461#comment-14277461 ]
Josh Soref commented on CB-7285:
--------------------------------
[~OliverSalzburg]: if you can get this information from the UA already, then you should just be logging the UA.
The problem with such a feature is that it encourages developers to write code w/ really rough edges.
if (manufacturerA) {
doSomething();
} else if (manufacturerB) {
doSomethingElse();
}
What happens when it's manufacturerC?
Nothing.
the UX is thus awful for that case.
Or what happens when manufacturerA changes its sense of style (which happens annually IME).

> bq.For some platforms it makes sense to be able to list the Manufacturer for a device. These changes allow retrieval of manufacturer name for Android, iOS & Blackberry. Have not added to other platforms as I have no access to those or know the API's.
