Added Attributes are all case sensitive
---------------------------------------
Key: DIRSERVER-832
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-832
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.0, 1.5.0
Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
Priority: Blocker
The server is working, but this is pure luck !
When we add some attribute, like ObjectClass, the values are added into it
caseSensitive.
For instance, adding 'person' and 'PERSON' is just adding two values into the
attribute.
So far, so good. Now, we have many places in the server where wo do case
sensitive comparizon on suposely case insensitive values (like for
objectclasses). For instance, in SchemService :
...
private int getSubentryTypes( Attributes subentry ) throws NamingException
{
int types = 0;
Attribute oc = subentry.get( "objectClass" );
if ( oc.contains( "accessControlSubentry" ) ) <<<--------------- This
is DAMN WRONG !!!
...
At this point, I suspect the 1.0.0 version is not amendable. We must fix it in
1.5, using the MatchingRules to manage comparizons on attributes.
I hope I'm totally wrong, but I'm really scared... It looks like you go to the
doctor wor that little red spot on your skin, and it turns out you have a
hopeless cancer ...
