Felix Knecht updated DIRSERVER-1560:
------------------------------------
Attachment: ldif-alphabetic-order.patch
Patch for alphabetic ordering. I don't commit it as I'm not able to test it,
sorry.
Hope that anybody with more knowledge can test (and when ok commit) it.

> Hi there,
> we are using ApacheDS respectively the Maven ApacheDS Plugin to run our
> integration tests against a clean LDAP server instance and therefore populate
> it with the according schema information and setup data on test startup. We
> have different ldif files for schema and setup data especially named in
> alphabetical order
> to ensure, that the schema information is loaded before the setup data.
> Although this works fine for e.g. on MacOSX it does not work on Linux due to
> the following
> Code Snippet from class org.apache.directory.server.configuration.ApacheDS
> else
> {
> // get all the ldif files within the directory (should be sorted
> alphabetically)
> File[] ldifFiles = ldifDirectory.listFiles( new FileFilter()
> {
> public boolean accept( File pathname )
> {
> boolean isLdif = pathname.getName().toLowerCase().endsWith(
> ".ldif" );
> return pathname.isFile() && pathname.canRead() && isLdif;
> }
> } );
> According to Javadoc of class java.io.File
> Returns an array of abstract pathnames denoting the files in the directory
> denoted by this abstract pathname.
> If this abstract pathname does not denote a directory, then this method
> returns null. Otherwise an array of File objects is returned, one for each
> file or directory in the directory. Pathnames denoting the directory itself
> and the directory's parent directory are not included in the result. Each
> resulting abstract pathname is constructed from this abstract pathname using
> the File(File, String) constructor. Therefore if this pathname is absolute
> then each resulting pathname is absolute; if this pathname is relative then
> each resulting pathname will be relative to the same directory.
> -> There is no guarantee that the name strings in the resulting array will
> appear in any specific order; they are not, in particular, guaranteed to
> appear in alphabetical order.
> the assumption stated in the code snippet above is not valid and depends on
> the platform resp. Java implementation.
> In order to be platform independent the retrieved array of ldif files should
> be sorted in alphabetical order explicitly after retrieval.
> so you want them in a sorted order right, can you create a JIRA for this,
> will fix it
> Since I'm not a committer could someone please provide a patch for this
> problem?
> When will the next version of the maven ApacheDS plugin be available
> depending on the most current ApacheDS version (hopefully including a fix for
> this problem)? Currently it refers to 1.5.5...
> this is not a official plugin from Apache Directory Project, so can't say
> when it gets updated
> Kind regards,
> CAK
