Summary: Research LDAP Transactions
Key: FC-325
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FC-325
Project: FORTRESS
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Shawn McKinney
The need can be made by looking at the code. Perhaps the biggest (worst)
example is when deleting a role. In RBAC, the role binds the user with the
permission. It necessarily has relationships in the data model. Hier data
storage means the DAO must remove the relationships before removing the entity.
This is done via code. (No automatic ways of doing this as in relational models)
So, if something goes wrong, there is no way of rolling back the list of items
that were changed (before the fault).
This can be fixed by using transactions. Both OpenLDAP and Apache DS support
them (to some extent). Here will be details of the research. Eventually, a
proposed design will be shared.
Code Example(antipattern):
-
[AdminMgrImpl.deleteRole](https://github.com/apache/directory-fortress-core/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/directory/fortress/core/impl/AdminMgrImpl.java#L295)
