[jira] Reopened: (ADFFACES-110) Add Agent for BlackBerry Browser 4.0

["Joseph Rozier (JIRA)" <ad...@incubator.apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ADFFACES-110?page=all ]

Joseph Rozier reopened ADFFACES-110:
------------------------------------

             
There was a problem with the change to _agentInit in Core.js in the original patch.

Because the navigator.userAgent is prepended with "Mozilla/4.0" on the BlackBerry Browser, it was getting caught by this block else if:

  else if ((agentString.indexOf('mozilla')    != -1) &&
           (agentString.indexOf('spoofer')    == -1) &&
           (agentString.indexOf('compatible') == -1))


Which was before the BlackBerry else if.

> Support for the BlackBerry Browser 4.0 on BlackBerry device is desirable.  
> In order to support this browser, additions must be made to the Agent/capabilities.  Specifically, these changes are:
> 1)  The addition of the BlackBerry Agent and Platform constants in
> org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.context.Agent.  The BlackBerry Browser 4.0
> runs on BlackBerry devices.  Therefore, the Agent and Platform will
> both be "blackberry."  (Compare to Pocket IE, where the agent is "ie"
> and the platform is "ppc" for PocketPC.)
> 2) The specifcation of BlackBerry specific capabilities values (in a
> blackberry.xml file in
> trinidad-impl\src\main\resources\META-INF\agent).  The capabilities
> values will be quite similar to the Pocket IE 2003 capabilities
> values, except at this point it looks like no PPR will be supported
> (-adfinternal-partialRendering will be false and -adfinternal-xmldom
> will be false).
> 3) The detection of the BlackBerry User-Agent string in
> org.apache.myfaces.trinidadinternal.agent.AgentFactoryImpl.
> Also, unlike other agents/platforms, BlackBerry Browser can/should support the hardwareMakeModel Agent property, because this information is provided in the BlackBerry Browser User-Agent string.  The BlackBerry User-Agent string starts with
> BlackBerry<model>/<version>, where <model> is the device model.  For example, for the BlackBerry 8700 running the BlackBerry Browser 4.1.0, the value is BlackBerry8700/4.1.0.
