[jira] Commented: (DIRSERVER-971) Provide specific filter nodes for True, False and Undefined, and handle them in the search engine

["Emmanuel Lecharny (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-971?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12529570 ] 

Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-971:
---------------------------------------------

The filter should be parsed and normalized into the NormalizerService.

First, we should not let a filter go down to the backend with textual attributes. We should use their OID instead.
Second, I agree with Ersin, we should pre-evaluate the filter so that we discard all the bad attributes, and replace them with an UndefinedNode

> We need to be able to construct or modify search filters with special nodes for True, False and Undefined. And the search engine should be able to handle these. This is especially needed for DIRSERVER-955.
