Pavel Zlámal commented on DIRAPI-320:
-------------------------------------
First, thank you for the updated documentation.
You are right, that schema retrieved from openLDAP is missing a lot of
attributes/syntaxes. They can be retrieved from {{cn=schema,cn=config}}, but it
usually have protected access, so on clean install only root user can locally
read schema entries and then they are stored in attributes with "olc" prefix,
like "olcAttributeTypes".
I can dump such schema and manually remove olc prefix, but there is no suitable
schema loader. They either expect LDIF in your schema format (containing "m-"
prefixed attributes) or take connection and read entry by themselves. It would
be nice to have constructor for {{DefaultSchemaLoader}}, where I can manually
pass {{Entry}} containing necessary schema elements, since I can parse it from
file using your library manually.
Back to the {{LdapSyntax}}. I believe, such fake object can be created, but how
about registering it in registries, and what about X-NOT-HUMAN-READABLE flags?
I don't see big picture, so it will be up to your decision.
> ClassCastException on Objects.equals(Value,Value) for userPassword attribute
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRAPI-320
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-320
> Project: Directory Client API
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0.AM2
> Reporter: Pavel Zlámal
> Priority: Minor
>
> When I use _JarLdifSchemaLoader_ it seems to load _userPassword_ attribute
> type with different Comparator than when I load it from LDAP connection
> (openLDAP in my case).
> Then If I call:
> {code:java}
> Objects.equals(val, attribute.get())
> {code}
> to check if value passed to my method is the first in the attribute, I get
> _ClassCastException_, since it tries to pass _String_ (normalized value) to
> the _ByteArrayComparator._
> When I use Schema only loaded from connection, then it works, since it uses
> _ComparableComparator._
> {code:java}
> java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to [B
> at
> org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.schema.comparators.ByteArrayComparator.compare(ByteArrayComparator.java:32)
> at org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.entry.Value.equals(Value.java:1389)
> at java.util.Objects.equals(Objects.java:59)
> {code}
> So there is probably bug in schema ldif included in JAR or in equals()
> implementation of Value.
