there is this portion of code in _osl_getFullQualifiedDomainName : <pre><code> if (nLengthOfDomainName == 0) { sal_Char pDomainNameBuffer[ DOMAINNAME_LENGTH ]; pDomainNameBuffer[0] = '\0'; if (_osl_getDomainName (pDomainNameBuffer, DOMAINNAME_LENGTH)) { pDomainName = strdup (pDomainNameBuffer); nLengthOfDomainName = strlen (pDomainName); } }</code></pre> <div class="gmail_quote">2011/11/13 Lionel Elie Mamane <<a href="mailto:lionel@mamane.lu">lionel@mamane.lu</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> <div class="im">On Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 12:46:06PM +0200, Noel Grandin wrote: > GetDomainName is only used by > GetYPDomainName > in the same file > which in turn is only used by > const rtl::OUString& SubstitutePathVariables_Impl::GetYPDomainName() > in > /core/framework/source/services/substitutepathvars.cxx > which in turn is only used by > bool SubstitutePathVariables_Impl::FilterRuleSet( const > SubstituteRuleVector& aRuleSet, SubstituteRule& aActiveRule ) > in the same file. > and that particular codepath in that method is only referenced when the > enum EnvironmentType { > ET_YPDOMAIN > constant is used. </div>This all suggests that it *is* the nis domain that should be returned there, not the DNS domain. <div class="im"> On Sun, Nov 13, 2011 at 11:58:51AM +0100, Arnaud Versini wrote: > This function is also used in _osl_getFullQualifiedDomainName, </div>No, it does not. Not in master, not in libreoffice-3-4. osl_getFullQualifiedDomainName uses gethostbyname_r. -- Lionel </blockquote></div> -- Arnaud Versini
