Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-1080:
----------------------------------------------
I'm not sure if this should be considered as a bug, instead of a improvement.
modifiersName and modifyTimestamp are not mandatory attributes, as stated byt
RFC 2251 and 4512 :
"
3.4. Operational Attributes
...
Entries _may_ contain, among others, the following operational
attributes:
...
- modifiersName: the Distinguished Name of the user who last
modified this entry, and
- modifyTimestamp: the time this entry was last modified.
..."
The question is : do we implement and update those values in the server, and
when ?
> LDAP modify operation does not create or update necessary operational
> attributes within an entry

> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ldap
> Affects Versions: 1.5.1
> Environment: * ApacheDS 1.5.1
> * Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_11-b03)

> If an existing entry is modified (e.g. additional attribute addition), and
> the operational attributes "modifiersName" and "modifyTimestamp" are not
> present, they are not present afterwards as well.
> I have extended the existing test case
> org.apache.directory.server.core.operational.OperationalAttributeServiceITest
> in order to demonstrate this and to depict the desired behavior (svn commit
> follows).
