LDAP schema repository. part II

After a long hiatus, I started playing again with the schema repository idea.

The object of my play at this point is to pull the schema definitions, which are attributes values, off cn=schema from a directory, and to have objects for handling definitions in a Java program. JNDI seems to have most of what I need, but I'm also using the java.util.regex so I have the list with which to call lookup().

Maybe I've missed something, but it looks like the tools JNDI provides are great for handling the schema definitions of a particular object or attribute, but not so natural when you want to manage the schema itself, independent of any instantiated objects.
