Yes, there are separated binaries jars in maven repository at [1], it's
up to date.
we just need shared-ldap and shared-asn1 modules, which depends on antlr,
commons-collections and slf4j, they also can be found in maven repository.

case, is it possible to separate these codes from other parts of
ApacheDS?

These classes constitute 3 major features.
1. codec - encode/decode ldap message
2. filter - parsing search filters such as 'cn=*'
3. schema - parsing schema
I prefer to include them into our project instead of re-implement.
We do have problems. So far, I can see at least 2 problems:
1. Dependency: How should we include those code from Apache DS. Using
binary
jars as Yoko, or SVN external link as our concurrent module.
Both of the methods will have its pro & con. Binary form will involve more
manual efforts, while external link may potentially pollute our code base.
I prefer to use binary jars, because the interface and methods we used
should be stable, use SVN external link may make our code in unstable
position.
ApacheDS also depends on some jars, such as common-lang, antlr, if they
can provide the whole package is the best.
2. Code duplication: Apache DS have classes which will duplicate our code.
A
simple example is LdapDN. Shall we adapt our implementation to their code?
Any comments?
seems ApackeDS' implementation can't avoid, so we should use theirs as
more as possible, if there is no way to avoid using both implementations
simultaneous, adaptor would be helpful.
