4.0.0.6 - 2024-06-13

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the LDAP RA did not fall back to the preferred server(s) after they failed and recovered, in contradiction to the documentation. By default, the old behaviour is retained. See the new MaxFailoverConnectionAge and BindmaxFailoverConnectionAge configuration properties for how to enable the originally intended behaviour. (#1396167)

4.0.0.5 - 2023-09-27

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a regression which meant that a connection pool would not promptly replace closed connections, leading to pool exhaustion in some cases. Added replaced counter to LDAPStats parameter set to show when connections are replaced, e.g. due to server dropping connection. (#920562)

4.0.0.4 - 2022-04-06

Bug fixes

  • Fixed a bug where some failure scenarios were discarding connections without replacement. (LDAP-183)

4.0.0.3 - 2021-12-01

New Features

  • Allowed unauthenticed binds by setting empty User and Password configuration properties. (LDAP-179)

4.0.0.2 - 2021-11-18

Bug fixes

  • Fixed reconnect behaviour when running a query to not incur a one second delay. (LDAP-175)

4.0.0.1 - 2020-10-15

    • Add a new method getMessageFactory() to LDAPProvider interface that returns an LDAP message factory implementation to be used to create LDAP objects.

    • Add a new method sendRequest(…​) to LDAPProvider interface that returns a new LDAP request activity created in the SLEE and performs the LDAP operation specified by the given request.

    • Remove old methods createBindRequest(…​) and createSearchRequest(…​) from LDAPProvider interface, moved to new interface LDAPMessageFactory.

    • Remove old methods sendBindRequest(…​) and sendSearchRequest(…​) from LDAPProvider interface, replaced by the new common method sendRequest(…​).

    • Add a new common method getActivityContextInterface(…​) to LDAPActivityContextInterfaceFactory interface that returns an ACI for a given LDAP request activity.

  • Changes to resource adaptor event types:

    • Add a set of new event types for Add, Modify, ModifyDN, Delete and Compare LDAP operations.

    • Remove old event type com.opencloud.slee.resources.ldap.LDAPBindResultEvent, replaced by the new event type com.opencloud.slee.resources.ldap.LDAPResultEvent.Bind for consistency.

  • Rename several config properties because operations are no longer search-specific: SearchMinConnections to MinConnections, SearchMaxConnections to MaxConnections, SearchIdleTimeout to IdleTimeout and MaxSearchesPerConnection to MaxQueriesPerConnection. These config properties apply to all query types except bind queries.

  • Rename statistic parameter set LDAPSearchStats to LDAPStats. The parameter set contains statistics for all query types except bind queries.

  • Rename TimeLimit configuration property to SearchTimeLimit for clarity. The configuration property applies to LDAP search operations only. (LDAP-145)

  • Fix a bug that could cause idle connections in the pool to not be closed. (LDAP-148)

  • Fix a bug where the polled LDAP connections did not automatically try to reconnect to the server on the next query after the connection was lost. (LDAP-157)

Improvements

  • Add new configuration properties: BindCheckConnectionAgeOnRelease and BindHealthCheckInterval. (LDAP-151)

3.0.0.1 - 2016-03-01

  • Add support for performing a bind operation with given credentials. (LDAP-60)

  • Add SSL/TLS and StartTLS secure transport support. (LDAP-33)

  • Add support for active reconfiguration. Most configuration properties can now be updated while the RA entity is active. (See documentation for full list.)

API and Deployment Changes

  • Update component versions to 3.0.

  • Define a new resource adaptor type API for convenient search operations and support for new features:

    • Remove the redundant classes that are no longer used by the resource adaptor: AttributeSet, SearchConstraints and Connection.

    • Add a new class LDAPSearchScope that represents a data type for search scope values.

    • Add a new interface LDAPSearchRequest that represents a given set of criteria for the search operation.

    • Add a new interface LDAPBindRequest that represents a given set of criteria for the bind operation.

    • Add a new interface LDAPRequest that represents a base interface for LDAP requests LDAPSearchRequest and LDAPBindRequest.

    • Add a new interface LDAPBindActivity that represents an outgoing bind activity, created when an application sends an LDAP bind request.

    • Add a new interface LDAPActivity that represents a base interface for LDAP activities LDAPSearchActivity and LDAPBindActivity.

    • Add a new interface LDAPResultEvent that represents a data structure for holding the elements that are common to LDAP responses.

    • Add a new class LDAPBindException called when the LDAP client cannot perform an LDAP bind operation.

    • Make all LDAP class names begin with "LDAP" for consistency.

  • Define four new methods on the LDAP Provider:

    • createSearchRequest(…​) takes a given set of criteria and returns a new LDAP Search Request, which can be used to perform the search operation.

    • sendSearchRequest(…​) returns a new LDAP Search Activity created in the SLEE and performs the search specified by the criteria in the given LDAP Search Request.

    • createBindRequest(…​) takes a given set of criteria and returns a new LDAP Bind Request, which can be used to perform the bind operation.

    • sendBindRequest(…​) returns a new LDAP Bind Activity created in the SLEE and performs the bind specified by the criteria in the given LDAP Bind Request.

  • Change config properties due to the above:

    • Remove LDAPVersion config property. The only LDAP version supported is v3.

    • Switch from seconds to milliseconds for ConnectionTimeout config property.

    • Specify default values for PollSearchFilter ("(objectclass=*)") and PollSearchScope ("base") config properties.

    • Add support for new config properties: AbandonOnTimeout, BindMinConnections, BindMaxConnections, BindMaxConnectionAge, MaxMessageSize, ReceiveBufferSize, SendBufferSize, TimeLimit and UseSchema.

    • Rename following config properties: IdleTimeout to SearchIdleTimeout, MinConnections to SearchMinConnections, MaxConnections to SearchMaxConnections and MaxQueriesPerConnection to MaxSearchesPerConnection.

  • Define three new statistic parameter sets: LDAPSearchStats, LDAPBindStats and LDAPWorkerPoolStats. Remove the old statistic parameter set LDAPStats. (See documentation for more details.)

  • Don’t expose internal LDAP library classes to services.

Improvement

  • Include the alarm raised by this resource adaptor in the runtime alarm catalogue. (LDAP-13)

2.2.0.1 - 2013-09-09

  • Include an example service to send queries to an LDAP server. (LDAP-15)

  • Added a configuration property PollSuccessResultCodes to specify a list of result codes that should not be treated as poll failures. (LDAP-14)

  • The library component ID has changed to: "name=LDAP,vendor=OpenCloud,version=2.2" (LDAP-16)

  • File names now use OpenCloud’s standard build numbering scheme.

  • Component versions have been updated to 2.2 and will stay aligned with the package version.

  • Add a new method to the LDAP Search Result Event that returns the "Matched DN" for failed searches (the subset of the search DN that could be found). (LDAP-20)

2.1

  • Added two config properties (PollSearchFilter and PollSearchScope) to specify the LDAP search filter and scope that will apply to the PollDN (LDAP-10).

  • Close monitor connections when RA is deactivated. (LDAP-8)

  • Fixed a bug that caused classloader leaks when deactivating the RA entity. (LDAP-2)
