Alex Karasulu updated DIRSERVER-833:
------------------------------------

    Priority: Major  (was: Critical)

Not critical.  Something which will be done automatically when the bigbang 
completes.

> Attribute(s)Impl usage and API

>
> We should modify the Attribute(s)Impl API and usage. Those classes should 
> never be used outside of the server, and we should use BasicAttribute(s) 
> instance instead.
> When we receive a BasicAttribute(s) instance, we should convert them to an 
> Attribute(s)Impl before working on attributes. 
> A second point is that operations like contains(), get() or equals() must use 
> the matchingRules instead of doing straight comparizons of case sensitive 
> strings.
> Last, not least, we should not use the attribute name to do operations on 
> attributes, but their OID. Operations like 
> "objectClass".equals( trim( attributeType.getName() ).toLowerCase )
> should not be used. It's much better to define a static final 
> OBJECT_CLASS_OID somewhere and do a 
> OBJECT_CLASS_OID.equals( attributeType.getOid() )
