ApacheDS OID Specifying Data Type List

I am using ApacheDS as an LDAP Server. When you define attributes there are different types. For example, String or boolean. Is there a way to specify a List. So a List of Mobile?

If not, how can this be done. I am aware there is an ObjectClass called groupOfUnquieNames. But the problem is that I have multiple List. So for example, List of Mobile and List of Address.

How can this be done?

Solution

  • There is no list type, but attributes default to being multi-valued - mobile for example is multi-valued:

    dn: uid=user,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: top
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
...
mobile: 000-000-0000
mobile: 111-111-1111

    In other words user user has two mobile numbers. Both would be returned in a search request.
