'Root' searches are supposed to work well. The way it works is that it
looks
into all the naming contexts present in the RootDSE entry. I guess that
you
have such a naming context present, otherwise you would not be able to do
any search in your specific partition.
It may be a bug in 1.5.5. I suggest you quickly do a test with the latest
version (1.5.7) to see if the problem still exists (we fixed a large
number
of bugs between 1.5.5. and 1.5.7). If the proble still exists, then it's
most certainly a bug and deserves a JIRA.
this was fixed in 1.5.7, and if you migrate to 1.5.7 then it will work.
Many thanks for your quick responses!!
When I originally developed this, 1.5.6 was the most recent version. I
tried creating an LDAPPartition on this version but had a number of problems
(all the samples showed how to implement this for 1.5.5 and there were some
large API changes under the covers). So I stuck with 1.5.5.
The following article also seems to still talk about 1.5.5. -
http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/61-how-to-write-a-simple-custom-partition-for-apacheds.html
Are their samples of how to implement a custom partition in 1.5.7? I'd
AFAIR there aren't any design changes except some code refactoring to
make new partition implementations easy
check this
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/documentation/samples/trunk/embedded-sample/
Thanks again. I'll take a look.
This example shows an embedded server, but not a custom LDAP
partition. Do you know of any sample code to get this working?
(sorry for all the questions)
