Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRLDAP-43:
------------------------------------------
The specific LockableAttributeImpl class muts be refactored in two directions :
- as Alex said, 'Lockability' is useless.
- much more important, the class *must* be aware of it's attribute type. A user
could perfectly store a String or a byte array in an attribute, depending on
the attribute type being binary or not. Actually, it is supposed to be a
String, and this is not the best option. We should accept byte[].
The following transformation table should be applied :
Attribute's type client type server type
String String String
String byte[] String
OctetString String byte[]
OctetString byte[] byte[]
whatever XXX error where XXX is not String or
Byte
