[ApacheDS] HTTP transport and data exchange in JSON format for LDAP

hello dev and users,

   I have been working on an idea of sending ldap data in json format over http

   The clients can be written in either pure javascript or java. For
demonstration purpose
   I have implemented a new LdapConnection(java) with http as
transport, so it can be
   used with client-api.

   Download the server[1] with http service enabled and a simple ldap browser
   client[2] to demonstrate the feature of communicating with a LDAP server in
   JSON format over http

  Please extract the server and run the apacheds.sh script and once the
  started run the client application using 'java -jar' command

  All the source code is present at [3]

 appreciate any feedback

 P.S:- apologies for the cross post, wanted to let both dev and users
know about it

Kiran Ayyagari

Hi Kiran,

It sounds like a very good idea.

I will give it a try in the afternoon.

Thanks,
Pierre-Arnaud
