Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRAPI-157:
------------------------------------------
The fact that we use ellipsis in the add() method causes a pb when one add a
null value with something like entry.add( "mail", null), as we iterate on the
list of values (which is null).
It has to be fixed.
> Calling the add() method with a multi-value attribute and a null value throws
> an NPE
