Description

On S60 3rd Edition, using a host name resolver service (RHostResolver) during an already active connection results in the access point selection dialog popping up each time a name resolution is made.

How to reproduce

Connect to socket server (RSocketServ) and open an RConnection instance:

iSocketServer.Connect();
iConnection.Open(iSocketServer);
Start a new internet connection:
iConnection.Start();

The access point selection dialog will be displayed. Select an appropriate AP. After the connection has been established, open a DNS resolver session using RHostResolver and try to resolve a host name:

iResolver.Open(iSocketServer, KAfInet, KProtocolInetUdp);
iResolver.GetByName(someHost, iResult);

Access point selection dialog will be displayed again.

Solution

Pass the active RConnection instance to the host resolver:

iResolver.Open(iSocketServer, KAfInet, KProtocolInetUdp, iConnection);
