Hi

I'm looking at embedding ApacheDS in our application (a webapp running in 
tomcat or other app servers).  I started looking at the 1.5.7 release and got 
an implementation going using a Spring XML file for configuration.  I've moved 
to the trunk version now because I want to get some bug fixes.

The new approach is to configure ApacheDS using an LDIF file in the instance 
folder.  I see how to edit this to configure interceptors, etc, but I'd like to 
inject some of the configuration externally - for example the ports used for 
LDAP and LDAPS and the location of the working directory.  We set items like 
this in a properties file for our application; with Spring-based configuration 
I can use property place holders to use these values, as in:

   <property name="transports">
      <list>
        <bean 
class="org.apache.directory.server.protocol.shared.transport.TcpTransport" 
p:address="0.0.0.0"   p:port="${apacheds.ldapport}" p:nbThreads="8" 
p:backLog="50" p:enableSSL="false"/>
        <bean 
class="org.apache.directory.server.protocol.shared.transport.TcpTransport" 
p:address="localhost" p:port="${apacheds.ldapsport}" p:enableSSL="true"/>
      </list>
    </property>

Is there a similar recommended approach for use with the LDIF-based 
configuration?

Thanks

Richard
