Hi,
so I slept on the problem, and here are a few thoughts I had this morning :
- first, the alias handling can't be done in the doSimpleSearch() as I
thought, because if we do so, alias dereferencing won't be handled when
using the coreSession. It must be handled by the EntryFilteringCursor.
Remains to see how to implement that there.
- second, we may have some issue when an alias points to a non existing
entry. What will the cursor.next() return in this case ? The alias exists,
so the cursor.next() will move forward, to something that does not exist
(this is a Pierre-Arnaud thought).
hmm, if the aliased entry doesn't exist the cursor shouldn't move forward
Yes, but it's hard to know if the aliased entry exists *before* trying
to fetch it...
