[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-1675) Add capability to insert/update/delete multi-value attributes in LDAP connector

[Steven Hawkins (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-1675?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12977881#comment-12977881 ] 

Steven Hawkins commented on TEIID-1675:
---------------------------------------

What I would propose is supporting string arrays.  An array could be used to represent any multi-valued attribute for read or write.  Then for example with the ddl:

{code}create foreign table mmx_groups (objectClass string[], DN string, name string options (nameinsource 'cn'), uniqueMember string[]) options (nameinsource 'ou=groups,dc=metamatrix,dc=com', updatable true){code}

you could issue:

{code}insert into mmx_groups (objectClass, DN, name, uniqueMember) values (('top', 'groupOfUniqueNames'), 'cn=a,ou=groups,dc=metamatrix,dc=com', 'a', ('cn=Sam Smith,ou=people,dc=metamatrix,dc=com',)){code}

Here both objectClass and uniqueMember are arrays.

> Add ability to insert/update/delete multi-value attributes through the LDAP connector.  For example, this would present the opportunity for maintaining group membership through modifying the list of member attribute values in an LDAP groupOfNames object.
