[cas-dev] LdapPersonAttributeDao query Principal ID substitution

[Sean R. McNamara]

Hello All,

I've been working on converting all our custom Principals to use the 
Directory Person model -- the main goal being to get access to 
additional Principal attributes from our custom directory software.  I'm 
basing the attribute resolution code loosely on the 
org.jasig.services.persondir.support.ldap.LdapPersonAttributeDao , but I 
can't seem to figure out exactly where or how the {0} 'variable' is 
substituted for the Principal ID in the query property.

I adapting the example config 
(http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/CASUM/Attributes):

	<bean id="attribRepository"
		class="org.jasig.services.persondir.support.ldap.LdapPersonAttributeDao">
		<property name="baseDN"
			value="ou=people,o=company,c=fr" />
		<!-- This query is used to find the entry for populating attributes. {0} will be replaced by the new Principal ID extracted from the ldap-->
		<property name="query" value="(uid={0})" />

		<property name="contextSource" ref="contextSource" />
		<property name="ldapAttributesToPortalAttributes">
			<map>
				<!-- Mapping beetween LDAP entry's attributes (key) and Principal"s (value) -->
				<entry key="cn" value="Name"/>
				<entry value="Telephone" key="telephoneNumber" />
				<entry value="Fax" key="facsimileTelephoneNumber" />
			</map>
		</property>
	</bean>


Into:

       <bean id="attributeRepository"
                class="org.jasig.services.persondir.support.dnd.DNDPersonAttributeDao">
                <property name="query" value="{0}" />
                <property name="fieldsToAttributes">
                        <map>
                                <entry key="uid" value="uid" />
                                <entry key="lastname" value="lastname" />
                        </map>
                </property>
        </bean>




Everything seems swell until the point where the query attribute needs to be used, at which point I see that it's still set to it's 
literal value:

DNDPersonAttributeDao: in getUserAttributesIfNeeded; about to query: {0}

Any one have any experience or thoughts on this?

Thanks!
