Emmanuel Lécharny updated DIRAPI-328:
-------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.0.AM5)
3.0.0
> Fix inconsistency in Attribute and Value
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRAPI-328
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-328
> Project: Directory Client API
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Stefan Seelmann
> Assignee: Emmanuel Lécharny
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.0.0
>
>
> Inconsistent method names:
> * Attribute: getString() and getBytes()
> * Value: getValue() and getBytes()
> * Proposal: Rename Value.getValue() to Value.getString()
> Inconsistent and wrong documented error handling:
> * Attribute: getString() and getBytes() check for isHumanReadable and throw
> LdapInvalidAttributeValueException
> * Value: getValue()/getString() tries to UTF-8 encode bytes if not human
> readable, which doesn't work always, and javadoc says "returns null"
> * Value: getBytes() doesn't check if is human readable
> * Proposal: Make Value behave like Attribute, i.e. throw
> LdapInvalidAttributeValueException
> Opinions?
