Hi,



I'll pose my question by providing a piece of source code.



Source code:

// Setting the environment;

env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory");

env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://10.10.10.20/");

env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "cn=admin, o=lag");

env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "xyz");



// instantiating a context

ctx = new InitialDirContext(env);





// looking up an object

dtx=(DirContext) ctx.lookup("cn=cnbndd3h, ou=company, ou=fundel, ou=webapps, ou=sassenheim, o=lag");





AND now it comes:

attributes = dtx.getAttributes("", new String[] { "X", "Y", "Z"}); //doesn't work

System.out.println(attributes.get("X"));

System.out.println(attributes.get("Y"));

System.out.println(attributes.get("Z"));



... produces

X-values

null

Z-values





And if my code looks like... (remark the getAttributes() method

without providing a subset (String[])

as argument)

attributes = dtx.getAttributes("");

System.out.println(attributes.get("X"));

System.out.println(attributes.get("Y"));

System.out.println(attributes.get("Z"));



... the outcome is okay.

X-values

Y-values

Z-values





Can somebody tell me WHAT'S WRONG???
