No continuation references for referrals returned for some search filters
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Key: DIRSERVER-806
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-806
Project: Directory ApacheDS
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: 1.0, 1.0.1
Environment: * ApacheDS 1.0.1 (SNAPSHOT)
* Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-b03)
* Windows XP Professional SP2
Reporter: Stefan Zoerner
Priority: Minor


I have created a referral entry below the example partition like this:

dn: cn=theReferral,dc=example,dc=com
objectclass: top
objectClass: referral
objectClass: extensibleObject
cn: theReferral
ref: ldap://someHost:389/cn=somewhere

Afterwards I have performed some searches in order to check whether ApacheDS
 returns a search result continuation reference. I used JNDI and set Context
.REFERRAL to "throw" in order to check whether I get a ReferralException.

Case 1:
Base: dc=example,dc=com
Filter: (objectClass=*)
Scope: sub

=> ApacheDS delivers a continuation reference with the search result. I get 
an exception at the client.

Case 2:
Base: dc=example,dc=com
Filter: (cn=Nick Cave)
Scope: sub

=> Other than expected, ApacheDS does not deliver a continuation reference w
ith the search result. No exception occurs.

Note that the only change is the filter expression.

I have created a JUnit testcase to demonstrate the situation. It has been su
ccessfully tested with other Directory servers (OpenLDAP, IBM, Sun). I'll at
tach it soon.
