59616 - v4.1, Coding error in LDAPSchemaElement.java, line 427

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Directory Graveyard :: LDAP Java SDK, defect, P3)

Description

[Joe Schneider]

ldapjdk.jar 4.1
LDAPSchemaElement.java, function  parseValue( String raw ), line 407

Siemens DirX LDAP-directory delivers MUST and MAY attribute lists WITHOUT 
whitespaces i.e "MAY (1.2.3.4 $ 2.3.4.5)".

I think there is a coding error in line 407 (LDAPSchemaElement.java). Last 
character of last attributetype will be cut off --> "2.3.4." instead 
of "2.3.4.5"

                    // [e-mail]
                    // OLD: val = new String( ch, ind, last-ind-1 );
                    while ( ch[--last] == ' ' );
                    val = new String( ch, ind, last-ind + 1 );
