-------------------------------------------
Assignee: Emmanuel Lecharny
> Credentials in server.xml is transformed to byte[] without using "UTF-8"
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-772
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-772
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
> Assigned To: Emmanuel Lecharny
>
> The credentials declared in the server.xml files are read as a byte array
> during the server initialization.
> However, if we don't change that in the next version, we must fix the
> conversion from String to byte[], because the user's default encoding may be
> different from UTF-8, which is the server.xml file's encoding. The piece of
> code that read the credential is :
> ...
> Object value = env.get( Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS );
> if ( value == null )
> {
> credential = null;
> }
> else if ( value instanceof String )
> {
> credential = ( ( String ) value ).getBytes();
> }
> Here, we should have something like :
> credential = ( ( String ) value ).getBytes( "UTF-8" );
