LDAP list - sorting by uid name #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The list of LDAP entries is shown without uid/cn etc. sorting. It's quite 
difficult to find an entry in the list by uid

This might be easy to implement. It is valid for an LDAP entry to have multiple 
uid and cn fields, as well as not 
having any at all.  Perhaps a filtering function would help here? If we place a 
combo box on the top with possible 
LDAP fields, and a combo box with comparison operators (= / !=) and an empty 
text field for entering your 
criteria, would that help? In that way you'd be able to specify that you only 
want to see entries with 
uid=myusername.

Could you please provide a drawing indication how you think the final should 
look? I currently have only a very rough idea what you expect. But before I 
start changing nearly the the whole look of the main window, I would like your 
input first.

Glad that you've been able to some of the issues. I'm just trying to catch up, 
could we have a short chat on Google Chat, Messenger, Skype, in the near 
future?   You can catch me on Google Chat: allan.lykke.christensen@gmail.com,  
MSN: allan@i2m.dk, Skype: allanlykkechristensen, Yahoo: allan_l_christensen

As for me: in the attachement i've included very simple layout of the current 
LDAP tree in the ldap-explorer application. As you can see, the uid's are not 
sorted by uid name. Correct order should be: admin, manager, smikula, user. In 
schemas where there is very long list of uid's in the tree it is very hard to 
find uid in the tree visually.
In LDAP-Admin (free win32 application) there is sorting by uid name as in this 
screen: http://ldapadmin.sourceforge.net/screenshots/appwin.jpg

Hey, in subversion the treenodes are sorted by their visual label. This should 
get the desired effect. If the naming element is not the same attribute type in 
each node, then you see a difference from "alphabetical" order of the attribute 
value, as the value is prefixed with the attribute name.

The release should happen in a not too distant future.
