Hi all!
Hi Stefan,

I try to experiment with the Partition interface in order to provide a simple example for the Docs. Here is a question I have.

In the interface org.apache.directory.server.core.partition.Partition (which I have to implement) the two methods getSuffixDn() and getUpSuffixDn() have the same javadoc. It states "Gets the distinguished/absolute name of the suffix for all entries stored within this ContextPartition."
yeah, this is pretty lousy.

What is the difference between the two, and what exactly does the "Up" in getUpSuffixDn() mean? I was thinking about "user provided". Perhaps one is expected in a normalized way ... But these are only guesses.
It's 'User provided', which doe snot make a lot of sense when you know that you get a DN, which already provides methods to get the UP value.

It certainly has to be fixed...

Thanks for pointing out this !
