Description

In the current studio implementation. Connections classes such as JndiConnectionContext hard code ldap environment variables:

public void connect( String host, int port, boolean useLdaps, boolean useStartTLS, Control[] connCtls,
ExtendedProgressMonitor monitor ) throws NamingException

{ this.environment = new Hashtable<String, String>(); this.environment.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, " com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory" ); //$NON-NLS-1$ this.environment.put( "java.naming.ldap.version", "3" ); //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$ // more logic here...... }

Using a jndi.properties file would make the service provider configurable. An advice is to use a preference dialog to enter the right provider.
