Hi,
the TelephoneNumber syntax is defined by ITU recommendation E.123, which
is translated into a regexp internally:
^ *[+]? *((\([0-9- ,;/#*]+\))|[0-9- ,;/#*]+)+$
- may start with any numbe rof spaces
- have a '+' at the beginning
- may have ( )
- any chars in "0-9 - ,;/#*" are accepted inside '(' ')'
- any chars in "0-9 - ,;/#*" are accepted outsides '(' ')'
Accordingly to this syntx, the following numbers get rejected:
o 925.543.7760 : '.' is not accepted
o (+91)8106912289: the '+' should be outside the '(' ')'
o 215-943-4000 ext7073: "ext" is not valid
A few more things:
o '+' is for international number. There is no reason to have this char
with a '(' ')', as parentheses are for optional numbers
o 'Dialable symbols' are expected to be dialled on a pretty limited
keyboard, this is the reason why such things as 'ext' are not accepted
I understand this is pretty limited, and carry no additional context
that would worth having (for instance the ext7073 which carries
inmportant information for the user), but in this case, I would suggest
you use another AttributeType which accept more chars, which means you
have to define your own AttributeType with a wider Syntax (as
DirectoryString).
Side note: we have added a way to change the regexp in this
AttributeType, but it's not leveraged by the server.

Hi,
Can someone please answer my query regarding the telephoneNumber format
supported by ApacheDS AM16 and beyond versions?
We tried adding numbers in the following format, but it failed:
925.543.7760
(+91)8106912289
215-943-4000 ext7073
The only formats where it passed are:
888-303-8482
+918106912289
So, it looks like the "dot" and "brackets" are not supported.
Can someone please clarify this?
Thanks,
Pawan Verma
