Sending iphone's [[UIDevice currentDevice] name] over network

I'm trying to send the device name over a network impl开发者_C百科emented with CFNetwork. My application will successfully send the NSString over the simulator, but not on an actual device. The class reference has the properties for this function set at:

@propertyic,readonly,retain) NSString *name

I've tried formatting the final string I intend to use by using stringWithFormat as well as stringByAppendingString but it won't work using either method.

First try to send a a stupid name that you create, like

NSString *nameTest = @"Name of iPad"

If you see this, the problem is not send a NSString, I think this is working for you. Than, you know get the name with this

NSString *name = [[UIDevice currentDevice] name];

Now the bug you can have is: A nill name or name with invalid character, this work for me:

NSArray *toRemove = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"'", @"\"", @"<", @">", nil];
for (NSString *currentChar in toRemove) {
    name = [name stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:currentChar 
                                           withString:@""];
}    
if ([name isEqualTo:@""]) name = @"no name";

See if this is the problem
