Bastiaan Bakker commented on DIRSERVER-750:
-------------------------------------------

hmm, I see I created this issue with priority 'major', should be 'minor' I guess. Looks like I can't modify the priority however....

Anyway, apacheds-shared-ldap, has a build dep on commons-lang in its pom, but doesn't actually use commons-lang. So the whole dep can be removed. 
For apacheds server,  it recompiles fine with commons-lang 2.1.
I do see usage of comons-lang in  server-jndi/src/main/java/org/apache/directory/server/jndi/ServerContextFactory.java and
core/src/test/java/org/apache/directory/server/core/jndi/LdapJndiPropertiesTest.java without a commons-lang dep in the correspondind poms. Do they rely on a transitive dep?

> ApacheDS currently uses jakarta commons-lang 2.0, which is over three years old and incompatible with JDK1.5 (enum keyword conflict). comons-lang-2.1 (the latest released version) is backwards compatible with 2.0 (with one exception that doesn't affect ApacheDS) and contains several bugfixes and improvements. It's also required by spring-ldap, a package that can be useful in partition backend code.
