----------------------------------------------

The perfect JIRA !

Thanks !

I confirm this is a bug. The DnComparator is actually just checking if 2 DNs 
are equals, instead of telling if one is below or above another one. This leads 
to some trouble when finding a DN into the BTree :

    public int compare( Object obj0, Object obj1 )
    {
        Dn dn0 = null;
        Dn dn1 = null;

        try
        {
            dn0 = getDn( obj0 );
            dn1 = getDn( obj1 );
        }
        catch ( LdapException e )
        {
            // -- what do we do here ?
            return -1;
        }

        if ( dn0.equals( dn1 ) )
        {
            return 0;
        }
        else
        {
            return -1;
        }
    }


We need to implement a smarter DN comparator, which is a challenge..
