Syncrepl standalone Java client api ?

Hello guys,

I just saw that replication in ApacheDS will be implemented with 
Syncrepl protocol (yep, I missed that much things ;)

I think that this is great, it's cool to see some interoperability 
finally happen in open source's LDAP world.

I just skimmed through the code, and it seems to be heavy coupled with 
ApacheDS server (I'm not much familiar with ApacheDS code, but that 
"session = directoryService.getAdminSession()" in SyncReplConsumer lets 
me think so).

An yet, I would love to see a Java client API for syncrepl (and I 
believe that other guys would like it, to :).

Is these something to hope for ? Or what would be the steps to reuse the 
ApacheDS code in order to build an client independent from ApacheDS server ?

Thanks for your answer, and kudos for the hard work !

np :)

At some point, I think that shared *will* become the API. Crrently it's a
separated lodule, but we think that there is no reason ot to merge those two
modules.

OK, just understood that most of the shared code is in Shared LDAP 
(surprise surprise :), and that code in ApacheDS / syncrepl is a perfect 
use case example. Sorry for the noise :)
