[Bug 1404188] Re: QNetworkSession::isOpen() always returns false

 

QtBearer just runs on top of the system networking, so if the platform
specifies it doesn't allow start/stop of interfaces, like the generic
bearer plugin, it is allowed to return an error of 'not allowed' or
somesuch.

It's the current network-manager bearer plugin that does not take into
account security limitations.

That said, a QtBearer plugin could be written using connectivity-api. It
would simply supply one configuration "System configuration" or some
name and advertise it is not able to start and stop
interfaces/connections.

Maybe I will do that today and you guys could use it or not.

Bug description:
  Using QNetworkSession::isOpen() in confined apps on a phone running
  vivid always returns false. This might be an apparmor thing, however,
  I couldn't find any REJECTED entries in log files.

  The test app in lp:~mzanetti/+junk/nmsessiontest can reproduce the
  issue. Open this project in ubuntu-sdk's qtcreator and run it on a
  vivid device. Press the button and watch the debug prints.

  On a vivid-desktop or a RTM based phone it will print "all is well".
  On a vivid phone however, it'll print "network session not open..."

  This used to work fine at least back in utopic images.
