Tim, Embarrassingly I must admit that I never tried the JLDAP stuff. I have used the netscape API and that worked nicely and prefer it over JNDI but I have never tried it with LDAPS.
You're right about JNDI in that it just works tho that's why we deal with it. Alex On 3/28/07, Tim Quinn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Good evening, I was wondering is anybody with an opinion on the JLDAP ( http://www.openldap.org/jldap/) libraries for accessing and doing basic operations LDAP in java business logic. - Are there any advantages to using those libraries? - Are there any dangers of using them? -- eg. Saturation of knowledge that should be focussed on java.naming.*foundations. - Are there advantages with older JVMs (eg. 1.3) I've used them in the past but had problems with LDAPS and find that using java.naming.InitialDirContext just works without any problems with LDAPS. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated :^) -TQ BTW - I have to write some 1.3n LDAP logic over the next few days (not for ApacheDS) and don't have to worry about LDAPS (right away).
