[jira] [Commented] (DIRSTUDIO-1296) Export doesn't decode RFC 4517 Postal Address syntax
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1296?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17537039#comment-17537039 ]

> Key: DIRSTUDIO-1296
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1296
> Project: Directory Studio
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: studio-ldapbrowser
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M17
> Reporter: Fredrik Roubert
> Priority: Major
>
> When exporting any entries using the RFC 4517 Postal Address syntax (1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.41) to any non-LDAP data format (CSV, Excel, …) these entries aren't decoded but the RFC 4517 escaped data is instead exported as-is, like this:
> \241,000,000 Sweepstakes$PO Box 1000000$Anytown, CA 12345$USA
> … instead of this:
> $1,000,000 Sweepstakes
> {{PO Box 1000000}}
> {{Anytown, CA 12345}}
> {{USA}}
> I think it's safe to assume that no non-LDAP software is expected to be able to decode RFC 4517 escaped data, so not doing this decoding upon export must be a bug.
> (This data is correctly decoded and encoded by default for display and edit within Directory Studio itself.)
