Is anything besides String supported for BasicAttribute?
I'm using ApacheDS 1.5.
I tried adding a port value as an integer to schema:
dn: m-oid=1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.1.1.2.1.3, ou=attributeTypes, cn=other,
ou=schema
objectclass: metaAttributeType
objectclass: metaTop
objectclass: top
m-oid: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.9.1.1.2.1.3
m-name: port
m-description: ip port
m-equality: integerMatch
m-syntax: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.27 (Integer)
code:
....
attributes.put(new BasicAttribute("ipV4Addr", "10.0.0.1");
attributes.put(new BasicAttribute("port", intPort);
...
ctx.createSubcontext(cn, attributes);
Looking at the created entry with Studio: it got created with the IP address
attribute (string) , but not the port value (integer). I don't see any
errors in the ldap debug printouts.
If i change code to:
attributes.put(new BasicAttribute("port", intPort.toString());
and the port's schema to:
m-syntax: 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26 (IA5 String)
The port gets added. Is this expected behavior, or am I missing something in
my schema/code to allow non-String attribute values?
thanks,
David
