Problem with GWT 2.5.1 and Kindle paperwhite user agent

Hi everyone,

I am using GWT 2.5.1 and I am accesing to a .war depolyed with Tomcat 7.0.32, using the browser of a Kindle paperwhite model No. EY21.

The problem is that GWT cannot get the user-agent of the Kindle correctly, I mean, I get the following values:

  • From my server: getMyThreadLocalRequest().getHeader("user-agent") --> Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l like Android; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.2+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.2+Kindle/3.0+ --> ok!

  • From the web www.whatsmyuseragent.com --> Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux armv7l like Android; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.2+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/533.2+ Kindle/3.0+ --> ok !

  • From GWT 2.5.1 library: Window.Navigator.getUserAgent() --> Mozilla/5.0 (X11; ; U; Linux armv7l; en-us) AppleWebKit/534.26+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0 Safari/534.26+ --> ?¿?¿

So, I think that the GWT function is not getting the correct value for the user agent of the Kindle paperwhite browser...

Any idea??

Thanks a lot in advance!!
