Emmanuel Lecharny updated DIRSERVER-805:
----------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: pre-2.0
Not sure that it worth the effort right now... Chars above 0xFFFF are generaly
attributed to dead langages like ougaritic, old persean, etc ...
> Supporting Unicode chars above 0xFFFF
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-805
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-805
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: pre-2.0
>
>
> The current implementation and handling of LdapStrings does not support
> characttres which are above unicode 0xFFFF. Even if Strings are translated to
> UTF-8 before being transfered to the server, we still convert them back to
> String inside the server. Some of those UTF-8 bytes may be encoded into 2
> chars (if the UTF-8 bytes sequence contains 4 to 6 bytes), but all the
> manipulations of those Stri,g does not take into account such characters.
> For instance, the DN parsing is based on single chars, and surrogates are not
> handled at all.
> Even if not really important, because extended chars are not very common,
> this is something that should be fixed in 2.0
