Nsure Indentity Manager (DirXML) Driver Kit

1.0 DirXML Drivers

DirXML allows an application to share selected directory data with eDirectory and to synchronize that data between eDirectory and the application. DirXML has four main components:

• The DirXML engine which provides the framework
• The DirXML rules and style sheets which control the mapping of attributes and classes and the matching and creation of entries
• Event filters which control the direction of data synchronization
• The DirXML driver which serves as the interface between the application and the DirXML engine

The DirXML SDK enables you to write a DirXML driver in either Java or C++.

1.1 Supported Platforms

In this release, a DirXML driver can be developed on eDirectory servers running eDirectory 8.5 or higher on the following platforms:

• NetWare
• Microsoft Windows NT
• Microsoft Windows 2000
• Solaris
• Linux

2.0 Dependencies

DirXML requires eDirectory 8.5 or later. An evaluation copy of the latest version of eDirectory is available from the following site: Novell eDirectory 8.7 Evaluation Software.

DirXML software is available from the following site: Novell DirXML

3.0 Driver Certification Program

Novell is developing a DirXML driver certification program. The first phase will be a self-test program which requires developers to verify that their drivers

• Can perform specific tasks.
• Do not publish erroneous data or cause erroneous object creation and deletion.
• Do not lose data when either eDirectory or the application is unavailable.

For more information contact Novell.
