[apacheds] Adding an entry without objectClass

Hi all,

Can I add an entry without any objectClass attributes in apacheDS?

Thank you guys for the reply.

Then would it be OK for me add "objectClass: top" attribute to all glue 
entries? What is the case when we don't add 'objectclass: top' attribute?

... and if you want to be pedantic, LDAP RFC 2251 sec 4.7 requires that an 
add operation include an object class attribute :-).

I doubt it ... something will choke even with schema checking enabled.  
This is just an expected attribute so lots of code just presumes it 
exists with objectClass: top as a minimum.
