Description

Hi Stefan,

Here's some JNDI JUnit Testing code that runs fine on
0.9:

package com.pyramidetechnologies.webapp.mdc;

import java.util.Hashtable;

import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.NamingException;
import javax.naming.directory.DirContext;
import javax.naming.directory.InitialDirContext;

import junit.framework.TestCase;

public class LDAPTesting extends TestCase {
public DirContext authenticate() {
try

{ Hashtable<String, String> env = new Hashtable<String, String>(); // Set up the environment for creating the initial context env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory"); env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://localhost:389/ou=users,ou=system"); // Authenticate as S. User and password "mysecret" env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple"); env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "uid=admin,ou=system"); env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "secret"); DirContext ctx = new InitialDirContext(env); ctx.createSubcontext("mail=ole@pyramidetechnologies"); ctx.destroySubcontext("mail=ole@pyramidetechnologies"); return ctx; }

catch (NamingException e)

{ e.printStackTrace(); return null; }

}

public void testAddContext() {
DirContext ctx=authenticate();
try

{ ctx.createSubcontext("mail=ole@pyramidetechnologies"); ctx.destroySubcontext("mail=ole@pyramidetechnologies"); }

catch (NamingException e)

{ // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); }

}
}

This code crashes the server (The only thing changed
is this:

ctx.createSubcontext("mail=mail=ole@pyramidetechnologies");

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

• Ole
