--------------------------------------------
Summary: Cannot add attribute with a null value in teh Entry editor
Key: DIRSTUDIO-1139
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1139
Project: Directory Studio
Issue Type: Bug
Components: studio-ldapbrowser
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M12
Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
The entry editor does not allow you to add an attribute with a null value, like
a {{mail}} for instance (where value can be null, per IA5String syntax).
When saving the modified entry, you get the following exception :
{noformat}
!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 0 2017-03-10 06:40:16.420
!MESSAGE Unhandled event loop exception

{noformat}
The code is :
{noformat}
...
for ( IAttribute attribute : workingCopy.getAttributes() )
{
for ( IValue value : attribute.getValues() )
{
if ( ( value.isEmpty() )
{
//
throw new RuntimeException( NLS.bind( Messages
.getString(
"EntryEditorManager.EmptyValueInAttribute" ), attribute.getDescription() ) );
//$NON-NLS-1$
}
...
{noformat}
What we would like to do is :
{noformat}
...
for ( IAttribute attribute : workingCopy.getAttributes() )
{
for ( IValue value : attribute.getValues() )
{
LdapSyntax syntax =
attribute.getEntry().getBrowserConnection().getSchema().getLdapSyntaxDescription(
attribute.getDescription() );
SyntaxChecker syntaxChecker = syntax.getSyntaxChecker();
if (!syntax.getSyntaxChecker().isValidSyntax(
value.getRawValue() ) )
{
//
throw new RuntimeException( NLS.bind( Messages
.getString(
"EntryEditorManager.EmptyValueInAttribute" ), attribute.getDescription() ) );
//$NON-NLS-1$
}
...
{noformat}
but sadly, the {{SyntaxChecker}} is not accessible in the {{LdapSyntax}} we get
back (it's null).
That is annoying, but understandable, assuming that all the LDAP servers we are
connected to aren't able to feed the Schema properly...
