ApacheDS release status
Hi !
just to give a status on the release.
I was trying to fix what I thought would be a low hanging fruit :
hashing passwords that are stored into the PassowrdPolicy pwdHistory
attribute (DIRSERVER-2179). It appeared to be way more complex than I
thought...
Typically, we have to deal with password modifications in two places:
- Modify operation
- passwordModify extended request
In the process, I found new bugs that needed to be fixed. I'm not
totally done, but closing the gap.
This is a tricky piece of code, with many layers and interactions
between them, plus we need to be extra cautious when touching them.
Once done, I'll move back to fix the Mac OSX installer which need a new
packager (the old tool is not anymore available)
More to come.

yo), and I have made no progress so far. Will resume my effort next monday !

Hi !
some progress, but still not enough :/
I have completely reviewed the PasswordModify extended operation
handling on the server. The idea is to test this feature in conjunction
with two others :
- PasswordPolicy (PP)
- HashingPassword (HP) (the interceptor that hash passwords before
storing it in the backend)
So I'm currently writing tests that cover :
- PasswordModify without PP or PH : done and works fine. We are talking
about 35 tests here, compared with 9 in the existing PwdModifyIT class
- PasswordModify with PP but no PH
- PasswordModify with PH but no PP
- PasswordModify with PP and PH
I have already fixed many issues in the last three flavors of tests, but
it's not completed yet.
FTR, I have the integration tests green with the first set of tests, so
I wil just polish it atm and commit it before moving to the next set of
tests.
