[Typo3-dev] Ldap implementation

[Daniel Thomas]

Hi Didier,

sorry that I did not answer Your last email and thank You for Your 
contribution. Please clarify again the objective of Your changes:

Do I get this right that you want to support static group membership in 
the synchronisation process?
What puzzles me about Your changes is that You add code concerned with 
the actual synchronistation logic in three places:
- the authentification service class
- the synchronistaion module class
- the framework utility class (where it really belongs)

The extension system was built with the aim to avoid such redundancy by 
splitting code pieces in order to make them easily reusable. When You 
made Your changes in the tx_ldapserver class You have without doubt 
seen the outcommented function getStaticFEGroups directly above Your 
new function getStaticGroups. This function is outcommented because I 
did not yet make it configurable enough and haven't tested it 
thoroughly. However, the concept should be easy to grasp and it deals 
with static group membership without having to change the other classes 
as well.

Could you explain to me what your changes do that could not be done 
with this function if we were to change one or two lines to make 
configuration easier and change the name into something more general 
like the getStaticGroups you have proposed.

Regards

Daniel
