Hi,

while dealing with some tricky serialization code, I faced some little problem... We currently can only serialize a straight ServerEntry without its reference to the registries, but then when we need to deserialize the ServerEntry, we will have to add those registries after the entry has been read from disk (or memory).

This is a little bit cumbersome, as it forces the developper to remember to do so, otherwise, he won't be able to modify the entry.

Another problem I'm facing is that Mitosis currently use Entry to communicate between two servers. For the same obvious reason, there is no mean to save the registries in the serialazed form of the ServerEntry, so I'm just wondering if we should not simply use the LDIF Entry structure to exchange entries ?

Right now, I will translate ServerEntry to Attributes and back, until we have a clear vision of what we need to do.

wdyt ? Any other better idea to solve these problems ?
