Nice, I've been running tests on my end too and have identified a few areas where accuracy can be improved. I have a fix in mind which will support a limited set of regex without too much extra complexity. I will try and get this committed in the next few days. Still would like to get more test data.
As for desktop browsers, I think its a reasonable ask to support them and not too difficult to identify them. --- Sent from a Blackberry 9900 -----Original Message----- From: "eberhard speer jr." <[email protected]> Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 16:05:00 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: Re: devicemap java client classify error -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, the test is running... While I cannot agree with "recommend people use a "proper" browser", Werner does raise an important point with regard to 'desktop'-browsers. Referring to the first 'Aside' in my http://www.ducis.net/Static/dm_flow.html where I 'define' "device" in the context of DDR (repeated here below), I do not think desktop-browsers should be included in the resolver-functionality of a DDR. If an user-agent string comes out as 'unknown' it means the device is unknown to the current repository *or* that it is not a 'device'. Deciding whether the 'unknown' is actually a unknown device or a desktop, I am convinced should be handled in 'post-production' so to speak, by a more 'classic' actual parser. But this is a separate 'debate' I'm sure we'll come to, let's first see where Reza's DeviceMapClient takes us. Test still running :-) esjr -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJRyZV8AAoJEOxywXcFLKYcT9UIALL6vCE9WQm22zE3vtKkZQ/u hZEL6IBX7fVMBIfbidp+k1ZM2YqpI1BS1Q+zv7XbWmqi9QiOG0pzu135NDtJsePS FHL3Xv6qJCWVZKKm9hkGTr7aMti1h9rgEu3VV1Ouvn7w3ys17o8Jn5MaYbGifQKe BMjDfsAVZAEVI3FwiSyZUKCbhLhrr9dEaD6kBe7bg+vGe1f0XKialMlsKTviRDUO /A8g1gEzp+OxZcaHorunbFaVDOd4dIvve1It4FUEABDACzg8adqMm5VTO5zZB67v UPsKno/Iw4MrkrYlm6CHjXHzKQ4+HZUYc4egNEM3Zm6ha/UbUoKiOZglI7OYM18= =lsHZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
