org.springframework.ldap imports com.sun.jndi.ldap... how do I provide that?

[jchamlin]

I'm trying to use the org.springframework.ldap-1.3.0.RELEASE.jar provided by the EBR (I also tried the 1.2.1 JAR). In its MANIFEST, it includes an import reference (the first one in the Import-Package):

Import-Package: com.sun.jndi.ldap;version="0",

When I do try to use it, I get the error below.

com.sun.jndi.ldap seems to be a system provided package... it's available on the classpath in my Java 6 environment (and according to the Sun website is provided as part of the JRE at least as far back Java 5, http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/).

So, is this a bnd/bundlor error in generating the manifest? If so, the 1.2.1 has the same issue. Or, am I supposed to do something to make the com.sun.jndi.ldap package available to this bundle?

Thanks in advance.

This is tricky area of OSGi: there's no standard for what parts of the JRE should be made available. For something in a com.sun.* package it's probably JVM dependent as to whether or not the classes with actually be in the JRE.

You can make the package available from the JRE such that it can be imported by other bundles by exporting it from the system bundle. In dm Server this is controlled by the org.osgi.framework.system.packages property in the lib/java6-server.profile file. Adding an entry for com.sun.jndi.ldap will make the package available:

org.osgi.framework.system.packages = \
 com.sun.jndi.ldap,\
 javax.accessibility,\
 javax.activation,\
 ...

If you use Equinox as your OSGi runtime you can add the required package to the boot delegation, using the system property 'org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation'.

So:
* either add

-Dorg.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=com.sun.jndi.ldap

to the command launching Equinox
* or add a line:

org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=com.sun.jndi.ldap

in your config.ini

It solved for me a similar problem as yours, with Equinox not finding the LDAP initial context factory.

Hope it helps.

Hi,
I have the same problem and I added the com.sun.jndi.ldap to the org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation line, the line in the config.ini looks like this:

org.osgi.framework.bootdelegation=com.sap.jvm.impl .*,com.sun.tools.attach*,sun.tools.attach,javax.ma nagement.*,com.sun.jndi.ldap.*

But, still when I start the server I get the following exception:
