Old code applied sync flags to store(), however supported DBMs
require such flags to be specified during open(). The new
code now applies flags in ldbm_cache_open (which calls ldbm_open).
ldbm_cache_close() now calls ldbm_sync(). This will force
a updating of on-disk contents after each LDAP operation.
The old code either failed to sync the on-disk contents until
close or synced on every store. Per LDBM operation syncing
*should* be safe enough... real data safety requires transactions.
Removed nosync option from BDB2 as it is not compatible with
txn support.
Also added code to disable DBM level locking as slapd is only
process acessing the databases (dbnolocking).
ldapsearch:
use draft guidelines for determining when to use
-t only writes binary attributes to files
-tt writes all attributes to files
output now lists URL instead of path to such files
-T dir can be used to specify directory to create temp files in
-V urlprefix can be used to change the URL prefix
LDIF is now commented (can be disabled using -LL)
LDIF now contains version attribute (can be disabled with -LLL)
LDIF:
put interface changed to allow caller to specify how to encode
put interface uses draft guidelines for determine when to base64 encode
wrapping kludged to match old off by one bug
Tests:
removed trailing space from some attributes (to avoid base64 encoding)
enabled -LLL in defines.sh (should sed output to remove
wrapping/comments/redundant separators)
Misc:
updated codes outputting LDIF to use new put interface
TODO:
handling of version attribute on input
handling of URLs on input (ie: fetch URL)
a non-user-mod attribute (such as timeStamps).
Move generation of add_modify_attrs to frontend.
update of add_modify_attrs on modrdn needs work (currently
not updated to maintain consistency with replicas).
Includes support for update referral for each replicated backend.
Reworked replication test to use update referral.
Includes major rewrite of response encoding codes (result.c).
Includes reworked alias support and eliminates old suffix alias codes
(can be emulated using named alias).
Includes (untested) support for the Manage DSA IT control.
Works in LDAPv2 world. Still testing in LDAPv3 world.
Added default referral (test009) test.
Modified by me to dn_*() and attr_*() functions and to use
uidObject and to handle search scopes better. Could use some
more work. A fun project for anyone wanting to learn how
backends work.
Modified dn_parent and dn_rdn to accept be=NULL (to bypass
be_issuffix check). These functions should be generalized
and moved to -lldap. A project for another day.
Integration into ./configure ( --enable-bdb2 ).
Adaptation of the test-suite ( 'make' -> ldbm; 'make bdb2-local' -> bdb2 ).
Minor fixes in slapd/libldbm.
introduction of pid/agrs parameters to the test-suite slapd.conf files;
creation of sub-directory test/var for storage of pid/args files during test;
update of the slapd and slapd.conf man pages.
(The change reduces dependency on ldapconfig.h, since SLAPD_PIDEXT
and SLAPD_ARGSEXT are deleted from the code.)
Update slap_op to maintain dn and ndn (derived from conn->c_dn).
Update ldbm_back_bind to return actual bound dn (including rootdn)
for use in slapd_conn. Other backends use client dn.
Modify other codes to use ndn (normalized uppercase dn) most everywhere.
Aliasing, Suffixing and modrdn could use more work.
Applied suffixing to compare and modrdn.
add/merge as we now free strings agressively. Improved debug
message to include name of missing required attribute and added
check for 'operational attributes'. This check should be used
everywhere we need to test for operational attributes (add/modify).
Also, enabled schema checking for tests (and fixed resulting
problems by adjusting oc.conf).
"Check that the entry has no writers before removing it from the
cache" sounds more sensible to me than "check that it *has* writers"
before removing it.
I've also changed the default cachesize for tests to 4. This
should help discover such problems.
adds POSIX RegEx (and removes BSD re_comp/re_exec) support.
* POSIX RegEx is not currently included in the distribution, however
we will probably add Henry Spencer's REGEX library soon.
* ACL Group functionality is also included in this merge!
