Alex Karasulu updated DIRSERVER-874:
------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 1.5.1)
1.5.2
> Entries should be normalized in the NormalizationService
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-874
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
> Fix For: 1.5.2
>
>
> ATM, we normalize entries (ie, attributes and values) far into the server, in
> different places. This lead to complicated code, and duplication of
> operations. We can be sure that we have bugs or at least, bugs will appears
> as soon as more users will try to store elements which are not exactly what
> we expected them to be.
> The Normalization Service should normalize the attributes, as it does for the
> DN, to avoid such problems. Attributes normalization consist of :
> - replacing the attributeType by its OID
> - applying the normalizer on each values
> - removing duplicated values in an entry (for instance, it is possible to
> store two phone number, like 012345 and 01-23-45 are the same number)
> We should also normalize add, remove and modify operations in the same way,
> normalizing ModifcationItems
> These modifications are not exactly simple nor fast to implement, but it's
> mandatory and will help implementing new features in the near future.
