Aleksander Adamowski reopened DIRSERVER-1301:
---------------------------------------------


I'd like to reopen the issue since at the very least, the error message in the 
thrown NamingException should give a hint about the uniqueness requirement.

Also, in RFC 4512  I couldn't find requirements about lack of collisions 
between attribute type and object class names:

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4512#section-2.4 :

"Each object class is identified by an object identifier (OID) and,
   optionally, one or more short names (descriptors)."

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4512#section-2.5.1 :

"Each attribute type is identified by an object identifier (OID) and,
   optionally, one or more short names (descriptors)."

Nothing implies here that the short names of object classes and attribute names 
share a common namespace.

> It seems like when resolving the may list of objectClass "port", the OID was 
> resolved to the OID of attribute "ship", not objectclass "ship".
> Two things to note here:
> 1) Netscape/Red Hat/Fedora Directory server supports adding objectClasses 
> that have a name that's colliding with an attributeType's name.
> 2) Even if such behaviour violates an RFC (I'm not aware of such 
> limitations), the exception should point out that name collisions between 
> objectclasses and attributenames aren't allowed.
> I think that the OID registries should be separate for attributeTypes and 
> objectClasses.
