I am trying to get Open Xchange working with gcj, and so far things are

going OK. Now i ran into a problem with LDAP. OX uses
InitialLdapContext(...) to create a initial context. Later it uses

to throw a javax.naming.OperationNotSupportedException. After looking

throw a not supported error.
Is this simply because nobody had time yet to implement the real code,
or is this a real design decision ?

javax.naming.InitialContext.getNameInNamespace(...) and that always seem into the classpath source code it seems most methodes in .naming.* just

The former.

There is the basis of an LDAP client in inetlib. This was developed with the intention of becoming the protocol handler for an LDAP JNDI implementation. There isn't any DirContext implementation yet, it would be great if someone found the time to do it. Our only current JNDI implementation is a filesystem-based one which is still in the ether somewhere; Mark was going to review it but I guess hasn't had the time yet.

Also OX needs LdapName which i found in the apache directory sources,
are there any plans to add a LdapName implementation to classpath ?

I don't know what you're referring to.
