I agree, the LDIF configuration is great. The reason for persisting with the
XML approach is that I need to do Spring like property substation to set ports,
etc, as in:
<property name="transports">
<list>
<bean
class="org.apache.directory.server.protocol.shared.transport.TcpTransport" ...
p:port="${apacheds.ldapport}"
For a fully embedded server, dynamic configuration changes do not seem so
important.

There is a reason for such a (painful) switch : having a LDIF backed
configuration (Here, I should say a DIT based) allows us to dynamically
reconfigure the server, without having to stop and restart it. This is
incredibly useful.
