The Apache Directory Team is pleased to announce the release of Apache Directory Studio 1.2.0, a major update of its Eclipse based LDAP Browser and Directory client.
You can download Apache Directory Studio 1.2.0 as a standalone RCP application for Mac OS X, Linux and Windows here: http://directory.apache.org/studio/downloads.html You can also install it directly in Eclipse using this update site: http://directory.apache.org/studio/update/1.x/ Here are a few highlights of this new version: * The new Apache DS feature makes its introduction in Apache Directory Studio. This new feature allows you to run the latest version of Apache DS (1.5.3) from within Apache Directory Studio or Eclipse and makes it super easy (and fast) to create and run an LDAP Server. * The Apache DS Configuration plugin now supports the 4 latest versions of Apache DS. It's now capable to read/write the server.xml file of an Apache DS 1.5.0, 1.5.1, 1.5.2 and 1.5.3. * The Search Logs view has been added to the LDAP Browser. * We've also added the support to use the proxy features of Eclipse inside Studio as well as improved the platform (useful actions have been added to the platform, the Mac OS X application now respects the standards of Apple for the "About" and "Preferences" actions, etc.). * We've also fixed some bugs dealing with schema files and schema parsing in the Schema Editor and LDAP Browser plugins. Developed as a sub-project of the Directory Top Level Project, Apache Directory Studio is an Eclipse RCP application that takes full advantage of the benefits inherent in the Eclipse platform. Composed of several Eclipse (OSGi) plugins, Apache Directory Studio can be easily upgraded with additional plugins. Apache Directory Studio plugins can even run within a full installation of Eclipse itself. Apache Directory Studio contains 6 major features: * an LDAP Browser feature * an LDIF Editor feature * an ACI Editor feature for Apache Directory Server * a Schema Editor feature * an Apache DS feature * an Apache DS Configuration feature For more information about Apache Directory Studio, see our website: http://directory.apache.org/studio Below are the JIRA issues that were resolved since the release of Apache Directory Studio 1.2.0: Bug * [DIRSTUDIO-89] - Entry painted even though not created in server * [DIRSTUDIO-121] - Some property pages make the dialog very tall * [DIRSTUDIO-157] - Studio looses STRG-V over some time of use * [DIRSTUDIO-209] - Cannot expand attribute list * [DIRSTUDIO-266] - OpenLDAP schema files parser fails when DESC contains an empty string '' * [DIRSTUDIO-273] - Unable to get Base DNs on OID (Oracle Internet Directory) * [DIRSTUDIO-298] - NullPointerException raised when drag'n'dropping a connection to a folder (on Mac OS X only) * [DIRSTUDIO-315] - Choosing new value, in entry editor shows new entry when server error occures * [DIRSTUDIO-318] - Rename of multi-values RDN does not work when changing the second RDN * [DIRSTUDIO-319] - LDAP Browser creating new entry becomes empty and unusable in Windows Vista after certain actions * [DIRSTUDIO-323] - Studio fails to read ApacheDS server.xml * [DIRSTUDIO-325] - Keybinding conflicts occurred.
