Is it possible to support IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl in the In-Memory Directory Server

Open bskinny opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Would it be possible for the in-memory directory server to support client ADD requests which include IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl?

Thanks, Brian

In general, the in-memory directory server was designed to be mostly standards-compliant and didn’t have any support for UnboundID/Ping-proprietary controls, extensions, or SASL mechanisms. However, the ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION control is very simple (it’s just an OID without a value), and the server already had support for ignoring the NO-USER-MODIFICATION constraint in certain cases (because the code used to support LDAP add operations is also used for LDIF imports), so updating the server to support the control was simple and doesn’t affect compatibility with standard clients. So I went ahead and committed a change to add support for the control.

Thanks Neil. This will help a great deal with unit tests.
