multivalue ldap attributes

[Pavlos Drandakis]

Hello Scott,

Thanks for your answer. I asked on the PersonDirectory list as you
suggested and here is their response:

<snippet>
This is likely due to the API that CAS is calling to get the attributes.
If you look at
http://developer.ja-sig.org/projects/person-directory/1.1.1/apidocs/org/jasig/services/persondir/IPersonAttributeDao.html


There are two ways to get user attributes:
Map<String, Object> getUserAttributes()
Map<String, List<Object>> getMultivaluedUserAttributes()

CAS would need to be updated to call to the multivalued version of the
API and be able to handle multi-valued attributes.
</snippet>

Is it possible to update cas server core to include this update?

Thanks,
Pavlos
