Gerald Turner created DIRAPI-265:
------------------------------------
Summary: Deserialized Dn loses bytes field resulting in null dn,
treated as Root DSE when encoded in ModifyRequests
Key: DIRAPI-265
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-265
Project: Directory Client API
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Gerald Turner
The Dn class is Externalizable and has fields normName and bytes. The
readExternal/writeExternal methods preserve the normName field, but ignore the
bytes field. The Dn class has a static method, getBytes, which will return
null if the Dn instance had been deserialized. The ModifyRequestDecorator uses
the Dn getBytes method when encoding the entry name onto the PDU, resulting in
a zero length sequence if the Dn had been deserialized, therefore treated like
the Root DSE.
