session.getServerName xPages

Is this a bug? session.getServerName returns nothing in the Notes client, but the full server name in the browser.

Can anyone confirm this - I’m using 8.5.1 FP2 client

Subject: Working as designed

See the following note from Designer Help:This property is null if the session is not running on a server.

Subject: Found it (again)

I think I’ve come across this before, but am only just starting to get into xPages

Using:

var db:NotesDatabase = session.getCurrentDatabase();

var ser:NotesName =session.createName(db.getServer());

returns the servername OK - still don’t know why getServerName won’t work though, if anyone can shed any light on this

Subject: database.getServer()

simply use: database.getServer();
