Announcing JRuby/LDAP

I have just released JRuby/LDAP, a new project within JRuby-extras, that aim to be interface compatible with Ruby/LDAP. That is, if you have a Ruby project written for Ruby/LDAP, you should be able to run it on JRuby without any changes.

This is a first release and some of the more obscure functionalities haven't been added yet.

Installation is easy:

jruby -S gem install jruby-ldap

If you're interested in the source, it's available on RubyForge, within the JRuby-extras project.

JRuby/LDAP uses JNDI to achieve nice LDAP access. You can also use standard Java ways (i.e. jndi.properties) to change the LDAP access implementation.

The code is BSD licensed.
