Hi all, I am in the process of attempting to implement an auto-complete style user/group picker for authorizables provided by the jackrabbit user manager. It appears that the implementation of UserManager.findAuthorizables(..) always does an exact match of the property value being searched. For my use case I need a 'contains' match.
It appears that all the code is jackrabbit-core to do a non-exact match, but it is not surfaced in the public UserManager api. Please tell me if I have missed something obvious, but it seems like the jackrabbit UserManager interface should have another variation of findAuthorizables(..) that does a non-exact match. I'm happy to provide a patch if there is agreement that this is the right thing to do. Thanks and regards, -Eric
