Perhaps what I'll say is totally nonsense.
In the present version of LDAP user management, java classes are
differenciated at the top level.
There are
- classes for DB user management
(org.apache.turbine.services.security.db.* +
org.apache.turbine.om.security.* )
- classes for LDAP user management
(org.apache.turbine.services.security.ldap.*)
And there is a lot of work to develop all functionalities for two solutions.
Is it possible to implement LDAP connection at the low level, as a
particular DB Driver with, perhaps, some adaptations ?
Could we replace the description of the database schema by description
of the LDAP schema and then transparently store and retrieve data ?
Is this solution more compliant with the new V3 security scheme ?
Do you think it is a hard development ?
