Heads up. Here are some suggested changes on the Dn API. The existing methods
have a (e) prefix. The static methods have a (s) prefix. The added methods have
a (+) prefix. The deleted methods have a (-) prefix. The renamed methods have a
(r) prefix.
Constructors :
(e) Dn()
(e) Dn(SchemaManager)
(e) Dn(Rdn...)
(e) Dn(SchemaManager, Rdn...)
(-) Dn(String) not needed, the Dn(String...) can be used instead
(-) Dn(SchemaManager, String)
(e) Dn(String...)
(e) Dn(SchemaManager, String...)
(a) Dn(SchemaManager, Dn)
(a) Dn(Dn, Rdn) -> to create a new DN with a new RDN
(-) add(String)
(-) add(String…)
(-) add(Rdn)
(-) add(int, Rdn)
(-) add(int, String)
(-) addAll(Dn)
(-) addAll(int, Dn)
(-) addAllNormalized(int, Dn)
(all replaced by constructor calls)
(es) isNullOrEmpty(Dn)
(es) isValid(String)
(er) isChildOf(Dn) -> isDescendantOf(Dn)
(er) isChildOf(String) -> isDescendantOf(String)
(e) isEmpty()
(-) isNormalized() -> delete
(er) isParentOf(Dn) -> isAncestorOf(Dn)
(er) isParentOf(String) -> isAncestorOf(String)
(e) isRootDSE()
(?s) getBytes(Dn) -> package protected/delete
(?s) getNbBytes(Dn) -> package protected/delete
(-) get(int) -> delete
(e) getNormName()
(e) getParent()
(er) getParent(Dn) -> getAncestorOf(Dn)
(er) getParent(String) -> getAncestorOf(String)
(e) getRdn()
(-) getRdn(int)
(e) getRdns()
(er) getSuffix(int) -> getDescendantOf(Dn)/getDescendantOf(String)
(+) getSchemaManager() -> added
(-) normalize(Dn, Map<String, OidNormalizer>) -> delete
(-) normalize(SchemaManager, String) -> delete
(-) normalize(SchemaManager) -> delete
(-) hasSuffix(Dn) -> delete
(-) remove(int) -> delete
(e) size()
(e) equals(Object)
(e) hashCode()
(e) iterator()
(e) toString()
I won't change any of those methods unless we agreed on the operations,
because it impacts the server and studio deeply, so I want to be sure we
don't have to do that many times. Although as soon as we agree on some
of them, I'll apply the agreed on modification in code.
Thanks !
