[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-643?page=comments#action_12426458 ] Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-643: ---------------------------------------------
I have created a test case for it (sorry to have forgotten to point to a svn revision or to the test name) and I think it proove that it was a netscape bug. I may be totally wrong however. We may have to check with the Netscape API... > Netscape SDK: Adding an entry with two description attributes does not > combine values. > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DIRSERVER-643 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-643 > Project: Directory ApacheDS > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.0-RC3 > Environment: ApacheDS 1.0 RC 3 > Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_04-b05) > Microsoft Windows XP version 5.1 Service Pack 1 > Reporter: Stefan Zoerner > Assigned To: Alex Karasulu > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.1.0, 1.0-RC4 > > Attachments: AddDupplicateAttributeTest.java > > > Here is a strange behavior, which I am only able to demonstrate with Netscape > LDAP SDK for Java (or compatible APIs like Sun or Mozilla). I create an > LDAPEntry with two separate LDAPAttribute objects for two description values > in the LDAPAttributeSet. > ... > LDAPAttributeSet attrs = new LDAPAttributeSet(); > LDAPAttribute ocls = new LDAPAttribute("objectclass", new String[] { "top", > "person" }); > attrs.add(ocls); > attrs.add(new LDAPAttribute("sn", "Bush")); > attrs.add(new LDAPAttribute("cn", "Kate Bush")); > > String descr[] = { > "a British singer-songwriter with an expressive four-octave voice", > "one of the most influential female artists of the twentieth century" }; > > attrs.add(new LDAPAttribute("description", descr[0])); > attrs.add(new LDAPAttribute("description", descr[1])); > ... > After creation, the outcome is an entry within ApacheDS with only one of the > description values: > dn: cn=Kate Bush,dc=example,dc=com > objectclass: top > objectclass: person > cn: Kate Bush > sn: Bush > description: one of the most influential female artists of the twentieth > century > I attach the complete code as a JUnit test case. The code (and the test case) > works with other LDAP servers (Sun Java System Directory Server 5.2 for > instance) as expected (entry with two description values). > I was not able to create a comparable problem with an add operation with > JNDI. I assume that the corresponding BasicAttributes class within JNDI and > its LDAP provider combines/consolidates the attributes on its own, which > results in one attribute with two values. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
