NetBeans LDAP Explorer update
Written on February 16, 2010 by Allan Lykke Christensen
Isn’t it just typical. You want to spend a few hours implementing a few features in your application and before you know it its 1 in the morning. Following my basic implementation of an LDAP Explorer in NetBeans, I wrote down a list of features I want to implement. Among the features were a registry of LDAP servers (so one doesn’t have to keep entering the connection details). So, if you look in the source repository you’ll find that I’ve implemented a registry of LDAP servers (accessible through the Services window). Activating the nodes will create a new window and connection to the directory service. With that in place, I’ve also removed the “LDAP Explorer” from the Window menu. Lastly I’ve also changed the NetBeans API dependency so that it is now compatible with NetBeans 6.7.
Next, I want to clean up the Explorer window (no need to display the connection details there anymore), followed by implementing an interface for conducting custom queries and executing LDIF commands.
If you got some feature requests or comments you are welcome to submit them at the Google Code project site or on the NetBeans Plugin Portal. Thanks.
