In which cases exactly would you want the > device name to be different from the pretty hostname? Well that change the current behavior which is to restore the last name set, so if I set the name to FooBar1 and restart the device I want FooBar1 back after boot not pretty hostname, otherwise we can just make Name property read-only. In other words, if we want to be consistent there is only 2 options: 1. Allow the user application to change the adapter name, the order then should be stored name > pretty hostname > name configured on main.conf. 2. Do no allow user to change adapter name directly if pretty hostname exists, Name property should be made read-only (breaks API?), user can only change the adapter name via pretty hostname. -- Luiz Augusto von Dentz Computer Engineer -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
