Greg Haber commented on DNA-106:
--------------------------------
Right, just the metadata. Just talking about processing the results of
javax.naming.ldap.LdapContext.getSchema:
"The schema describes rules regarding the structure of the namespace and the
attributes stored within it. The schema specifies what types of objects can be added to
the directory and where they can be added; what mandatory and optional attributes an
object can have."
Federate schema information from LDAP directories
-------------------------------------------------
Key: DNA-106
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/DNA-106
Project: DNA
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Connectors
Reporter: Greg Haber
Priority: Minor
Create a connector for the federation engine that contributes and exposes the schema
information for an LDAP directory (probably via JNDI, as it provides standard
classes/methods for retrieving schema information - see
http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/ldap/schema/jndi.html) into the federated
repository. As with relational sources, one choice would be whether to import (and copy)
the schema structure, or to provide access to it in real time. Since in practice this
information rarely changes for a given directory importing is probably more acceptable
here than for relational sources.
