How to use ADF Security policies in OID Ldap

Question

Hello
My application uses ADF security policies created by Jdeveloper ADF Security Wizard and page definition Edit Authorization menu. The application runs as expected using file based system-jazn-data.xml. I used the JAZNMigrationTool in order to migrate XML based policies to LDAP based policies. LDIF file was generated by the tool and then using the LDAPModify command the file was uploaded to the OID. No errors were generated during this process.
I used Oracle Directory Manager in order to examine the migration result, and compare the output to that described by
Introduction to ADF Security in JDeveloper 10.1.3.2

I was expecting to find Read, Update privileges in the orcljaznpermissionaction and the attribute name in the orcljaznpermissiontarget as shown in Fig 15 ADF security entry in OID.
to narrow down the source of the issue, we examine the LDIF file, and there was no reference to these entries. Below is one example entry from the LDIF file
dn: orclguid=EF37EAA603C611DDBFAE635A1BB60EE0,cn=Permissions,cn=Policy,cn=JAZNContext,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext,dc=realsoft,dc=com
changetype: add
objectclass: orcljaznpermission
objectclass: groupofuniquenames
objectclass: top
cn: EF37EAA603C611DDBFAE635A1BB60EE0
orclGuid: EF37EAA603C611DDBFAE635A1BB60EE0
orcljaznjavaclass: java.security.UnresolvedPermission
orcljaznpermissiontarget: oracle.adf.share.security.authorization.AttributePermission
orcljaznpermissionactions:
uniquemember: orclguid=EF37EAA203C611DDBFAE635A1BB60EE0,cn=Grantees,cn=Policy,cn=JAZNContext,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext,dc=realsoft,dc=com
Note that the orcljazpermissionactions is empty and orcljaznpermissiontarget does not really specify the actual attribute name.
The system-jazn-data.xml includes all entries correctly.

finally solved,
runing the JAZNMigrationTool requires setting the correct classpath,
Setting the classpath to the following
C:\>Set CLASSPATH=d:\jdevstudio10132\j2ee\home\jazn.jar
allows you to run the Jaznmigrationtool successfully, however you will find that the generated LDIF file does not include the premission actions (Read, Update ...)
if however, you add the adfshare.jar to the classpath
C:\>Set CLASSPATH=d:\jdevstudio10132\j2ee\home\jazn.jar;d:\jdevstudio10132\BC4J\lib\adfshare.jar
now the tool will migrate the permission policies , the following shows an extract from the LDIF file
dn: orclguid=A5E662E204D411DDBF8807BC4864C5C2,cn=Permissions,cn=Policy,cn=JAZNContext,cn=Products,cn=OracleContext,dc=realsoft,dc=com
