hi Stefan,

yeah you are right getSuffixDn() gives a normalized DN where as getUpSuffixDn() gives the user provided.

Will change the javadoc.

Hi all!

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."

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.

Thanks in advance,
    Stefan
