86605 - BERInteger used too short values

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Directory Graveyard :: LDAP Java SDK, defect)

Description

[Bernd.Kunze]

In 
package netscape.ldap.ber.stream;

public class BERInteger extends BERIntegral {
}

public abstract class BERIntegral extends BERElement {
	/**
	 * Value of element
	 */
	private int m_value;
...
}

The value is too short. In some cases (e.g. certificates) are values up to 20 
bytes. So it should be changed to the java.math.BigInteger type.
(and corrections to the methodes and derived classes)
