Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSTUDIO-1187:
----------------------------------------------
We have kept the JNDI provider because we wanted to be sure we have a
workaround if the LDAP API was faulty. It's been years since we are using teh
LDAP API as a default provider, and we haven't had any trouble so far that
required to use JNDI to get Studio working.
It's about time to get rid of JNDI completely in Studio.
> Disable JNDI connection provider for Java 9+

>
> Behaviour of JNDI has been changed since Java 9. Especially
> LdapContext.reconnect() now creates a new physical connection. In Studio the
> "Check Authentication" used the old behaviour, it no longer works since Java
> 9. Instead of refactoring JNDIConnectionProvider let's disable it for Java 9+
> and long term remove the JNDI network provider.
