"LDAP ACIItem" Parser Implementation
------------------------------------
Key: DIRLDAP-53
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRLDAP-53
Project: Directory LDAP
Type: New Feature
Components: Common
Versions: 0.9.3
Reporter: Ersin Er
Priority: Minor
An implementation of ACIItem, ported from X.501 to LDAP, parser is provided as
a patch attached with this issue.
The implementation includes:
- an almost complete "LDAP ACIItem" Antlr grammar
- a wrapper around the Antlr generated classes
- two auxilary classes for parser/lexer pair reusability
- a test class
- and a maven configuration update
TODO:
- Good test coverage
- Model integration via actions
- Cleanup
ACI is a tough subject and this parser is no exception. This is somewhat a big
grammar that needs extensive testing which is missing now. The current grammar
does not integrate with ACIItem API implemented by Trustin, because we need to
discuss some issues about porting X.501 ACIItem to LDAP and about string
representation of some components. After we agree on a robust spec, I'll update
the grammar to fully comply with "our ACIItem spec" (Trustin may also need to
update his stuff). One more step will be integrating with ACIItem API which
will be a one hour task with Trustin's super clear implementation (thanks
Trustin!).
I'll further discuss the issue on the mailing list.
