I've been experimenting with the trunk version of ApacheDS recently, building from the checked out code. I run it from the snapshot .tar.gz target. This has a single monolithic service jar containing all the classes.
This approach is very convenient for standalone installs, but may cause problems if we decide to embed ApacheDS in our application. We already use much of the support stuff in the jar - servlet apis, slf4j, ActiveMQ classes, etc - and I want to make sure the we get the right versions. Is it is possible to make a build with separate jars? And (really fantastic) some guidelines as to which jars are required for various configurations? For example if I wish to embed an LDAP server (no Kerberos, NTP, etc), which ApacheDS jars are required and which external jars (and versions) are required? Thanks Richard
