Description

At Howest we use connection to an LDAP-server to authenticate our users.
Accessing user information with the LDAP-parameters in Chamilo 2.0 works fine.
However, it goes wrong when the default properties of the User Object in the 'create' method of the database Class are used: there is nog data of the user in these properties.

This is only a partial fix, something should be donne about the hardcoded ldap property names too.

Updated by Sven Vanpoucke over 9 years ago

The hardcoded properties are seperated in a parser class, when using the ldap connection, one needs to adapt the parser class to connect.

Due to many differences in ldap structure, a simple mapping system saved in settings / xml files is not enough to parse an ldap record to a chamilo users. In some cases very specific parse methods are needed like loops etc.
