** [tickets:#643] IMM: API that replaces SaNameT with SaStringT and 
SA_IMM_ATTR_DN**

**Status:** review
**Milestone:** 4.6.FC
**Created:** Thu Nov 28, 2013 05:00 PM UTC by Anders Bjornerstedt
**Last Updated:** Tue Sep 09, 2014 02:12 PM UTC
**Owner:** Zoran Milinkovic

The IMM service should provide an updated API where all use of the troublesome
SaNameT type is replaced by the SaStringT type or the SaConstStringT type #625.
Also needed is a new flag value for attribute definitions: SA_IMM_ATTR_DN. 

Defining an attribute in an IMM class definition on the SaStringT type and
also setting the flag SA_IMM_ATTR_DN, will mean that the attribute is intended
to hold a value that should be a DN. 

Other flags that make sense to also set on such an attribute definition where
applicable are:

    SA_IMM_ATTR_RDN if this is the RDN attribute. Just as having SaNameT the 
    type of an RDN attribute indicates that the class is an association class,
    having SaStringT and SA_IMM_ATTR_DN combined with SA_IMM_ATTR_RDN would 
    also indicate that this is an association class.

    SA_IMM_ATTR_NO_DANGLING. Currently (OpenSAF 4.4) will only be allowed 
    on attributes of type SaNameT, but will of course be allowed also on
    attributes of type SaStringT if the SA_IMM_ATTR_DN flag is also set. 

All the other flags may also be used in combination with SA_IMM_ATTR_DN, with
the normal meaning.
