I'm trying to write an array of bytes as an attribute in LDAP. I'm trying to do this without converting it into a string. So I have the following in my LDIF:
dn: m-oid=1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.3.1.9, ou=attributeTypes, cn=other, ou=schema
objectclass: metaAttributeType
objectclass: metaTop
objectclass: top
m-oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.3.1.9
m-name: ibm-imm
m-description: the actual block data being stored
m-equality: caseIgnoreIA5Match
m-ordering: caseIgnoreOrderingMatch
m-substr: caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
m-syntax: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
m-length: 32700
m-singleValue: TRUE
dn: m-oid=1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.5.1.2, ou=objectClasses, cn=other, ou=schema
objectclass: metaObjectClass
objectclass: metaTop
objectclass: top
m-oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.5.1.2
m-name: DeploymentBlock
m-description: Deployment information
m-must: cn
m-must: ibm-imm
m-may: name
m-may: uid
m-may: uniqueIdentifier
m-may: fileName
m-may: profileName
m-may: status
m-may: ou
In my actual code, I have the following:
ServerEntry newEntry = service.newEntry (new LdapDN (dnString));
newEntry.add ("objectClass", "top", "DeploymentBlock");
newEntry.add ("ou", baseString);
newEntry.add ("name", "deployment");
newEntry.add ("cn", <something unique>);
newEntry.add ("ibm-imm", <the block data>);
service.getAdminSession ().add (newEntry);
OfmLogHandler.DEBUG ("Done adding block!");
When I run my code, I find the entry in Apache Director Studio, but the attribute associated with the block data ("ibm-imm") is not there. When I try to read back the data:
serverEntry.get ("ibm-imm"), it says that it's null. So I'm obviously writing the data incorrectly, but I'm not sure how. Is my syntax for ibm-imm not correct?
Thanks,
Jon Russell
