Re: [dsdp-tm-dev] problems with localFile and hostname

[David McKnight <dmcknigh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding the capitalized hostname,
I'm not sure who wrote the initial code, but I see the following comments
in Host:

        /**
         *
Intercept
of
setHostName
so
we
can
force
it
to
uppercase.
         *
IPv4
host
names
are
case
insensitive.
Much
data
is
stored
using
the
host
         *
name
as
part
of
the
key.
Therefore,
the
host
name
is
capitalized
here
so
that
         *
these
comparisons
work
naturally.
         *
However,
this
must
be
done
using
the
US
locale
since
IPv4
host
names
         *
use
can
be
compared
using
this
locale.
See
RFC1035.
         */
        public
void
setHostName(String name) {
         
      if
(name != null)
{
         
              name =
name.toUpperCase(Locale.US);
         
      }
         
      this.setHostNameGen(name);
        }

I'm not sure whether forcing this to
upper case is such a good idea.  Could you open a defect in bugzilla
so that it could be discussed more formally?

Thanks,

Subject	[dsdp-tm-dev] problems with localFile and hostname

Hi all,
I'm trying to extend the RSE with a new subsystem for my 
webservice-based filesystem. Now I ran into problems:

When I try to open a file there is a call on the download() method in my
FileService implementation. For the variable "File localFile"
I get the 
value:
"C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Christian 
Hohmann\runtime-EclipseApplication\RemoteSystemsTempFiles\LOCALHOST:8080\DEMO-SITE\SERVICES\STORAGEMANAGEMENT?RES=DEFAULT_STORAGE\uas3.txt"

The problems are ":" and "?". This signs are not allowed
in file and 
folder names on Microsoft OS.
How can I deal with the localFile - names to download and view the files?


Another problem occures when I creat a new connection. I can enter my 
hostname in capital and lower case letters. But asking for the hostname
via: IHost.getHostName() returns only capital letters.
input:
https://localhost:8080/DEMO-SITE/services/StorageManagement?res=default_storage
changes to:
HTTPS://LOCALHOST:8080/DEMO-SITE/SERVICES/STORAGEMANAGEMENT?RES=DEFAULT_STORAGE

This causes some trouble with my own connector later on. For testing I
coded the needed hostname fix into the source. Is there a possibility 
for getting the hostname in the format that I entered?

I hope you can give me some advice -
Christian
