Emmanuel Lécharny commented on DIRAPI-369:
------------------------------------------
No, there is a special attribute that is added when the value is base64 encoded:
{code:java}
if ( ParserUtils.needsBase64Encoding( value.getString() ) )
{
Namespace xsdNamespace = new Namespace( "xsd", ParserUtils.XML_SCHEMA_URI );
Namespace xsiNamespace = new Namespace( "xsi",
ParserUtils.XML_SCHEMA_INSTANCE_URI );
attributeElement.getDocument().getRootElement().add( xsdNamespace );
attributeElement.getDocument().getRootElement().add( xsiNamespace );
Element valueElement = attributeElement.addElement( "value" ).addText(
ParserUtils.base64Encode( value.getString() ) );
valueElement
.addAttribute( new QName( "type", xsiNamespace ), "xsd:" +
ParserUtils.BASE64BINARY );
...
{code}
The last line add the {{xsd:base64Binary}} attribute for that purpose. There is
no possible confusion.

> Key: DIRAPI-369
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-369
> Project: Directory Client API
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Florian Kimmann
> Priority: Major
>
> Why does the method needsBase64Encoding in the dsml ParserUtils check for
> LDIF safety?
> DSML doesnt have to be LDIF safe? We get Base64 encoded strings in our
> application all the time, because of common german characters like äöüß etc.
> XML can handle those characters. Or am I overlooking something?
