Hi,
We are using APACHE DS 1.5.5 in embedded mode for testng tests. During
some of our tests , we are trying to update a User's multi valued
attributes
If we pass not null values, then the attributes are updated with out any
problem.But if we pass a null value or an empty list we get a null pointer
exception and the attribute is not updated. Please find the exception
trace attached below.
This was working in APACHE DS 1.5.4 ( NOT embedded version) server
We are using Spring LDAP 1.3 API to connect and perform operations on the
embedded APACHE DS from testng.
We tried two ways to update the multi valued attribute (email2) with a
null. Our goal is to not have any values in the multi valued attribute
(email2)
1. Trying to remove the attribute from user in APACHE DS, as its desired
to be null
DirContextOperations context;
context.removeAttributeValue("email2", oldValuesArray);
2. Trying to Pass an empty list to update the multi valued attribute. So
that the multivalued attribute becomes empty.
DirContextOperations context;
String[] userValArray = new String[0];
context.setAttributeValues("email2", userValArray);
In both the above cases we get a the below exception when we try to update
:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Please advise us how to over come this problem, as we need to update the
multi valued attributes with nulls.
