Re: Question about ABORT when canceling OPP file transfer

Hi Radek,

There is one PTS test for OPP which tests if we're disconnecting
cleanly when cancelling outgoing file transfer (this test is not
mandatory).  Currently it fails, because we don't send ABORT before
disconnect. 

I've noticed that code for handling it nicely already exist in
gw_obex_xfer_do_abort(...) but is disabled by default (via
USE_NICE_ABORT definition).

Is it safe to change that and  use "nice abort" by default? Were there
problems with handling this ABORT command by some devices in described
scenario?

I think this is just a packaging bug. There's no reason to disable the
"nice abort" feature. Actually, I think it'd be fine not to have this
configurable for gwobex but always enable it (it's a legacy from really
old OpenOBEX versions that didn't yet support sending the Abort
command).
