About Apache Directory Studio

Apache Directory Studio is a directory tooling platform for working with LDAP servers. Its LDAP Browser displays the directory tree of almost any LDAP server and lets you create, edit and remove entries. It also includes an LDIF Editor with syntax highlighting and content assistance, and a Schema Editor.

It is built as an Eclipse RCP application from OSGi plugins, which can also run inside Eclipse itself. It works with any LDAP server but is particularly designed for ApacheDS. Current releases carry milestone version numbers, the latest being 2.0.0-M17.
