Alex Karasulu closed DIRSERVER-1154.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

This has been removed in the refactoring process to remove JNDI's role in the 
core.  The core JNDI provider Is just now a wrapper around the DirectoryService 
but it does not support referrals at all.  The frontend does though.  There is 
another JIRA issue out there for referral handling in the JNDI provider.  If 
you use the core provider you'll have to handle referrals yourself since the 
core provider just treats them as any other entry.

> Declaration and instantiation of refService in ServerLdapContext limits 
> extensibility

> I ran into a problem that I think needs some simple design work or a simple 
> fix.  For my project is is not necessary to handle referrals, so I decided to 
> simply eliminate the ReferralIntercepter from my InterceptorChain.  As soon 
> as I did this, myDirectoryService started crapping on a NullPointerException 
> buried in the bowels of the DefaultSearchHandler (something I definitely 
> don't want to mess with for my project).
> 1) At DefaultSearchHandler.java:357 of  there is an instantiation of a new 
> SearchResponseIterator.  
> 2) The constructor for SearchResponseIterator calls 
> ServerLdapContex.isReferral() at SearchResponseItereator:117
> 3) ServerLdapContext.isReferral() results in a NPE at 
> ServerLdapContext.java:264 unless your DirectoryService's InterceptorChain 
> includes a ReferralInterceptor.  Take a look at the constructor and you'll 
> see why:
> public ServerLdapContext( DirectoryService service, Hashtable<String, Object> 
> env ) throws NamingException
> {
>     super( service, env );
>     refService = ( ( ReferralInterceptor ) service.getInterceptorChain().get( 
> ReferralInterceptor.class.getName() ) );
> }
> Is there any chance that we can simply Check refService for null before it's 
> used ServerLdapContext.isReferral().  If it's refService==null, return false?
> There's also similar a similar problem in PartitionNexusProxy.java:891 and 
> 901.  Here the code checks the chain for null, and returns, but it doesn't 
> check the for null before invoking the interceptor method. 
> Here's the patch:
