org.apache.directory.shared.ldap.codec.controls.ManageDsaITControlCodec
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Asn1Object
public class ManageDsaITControlCodec
- extends AbstractAsn1Object
Control which allows for the management of referrals and other DSA specific
entities without processing them: meaning the referrals are treated as
regular entries using this control. More information is available in RFC 3296. Below we have included section 3 of the RFC describing
this control:
3. The ManageDsaIT Control
The client may provide the ManageDsaIT control with an operation to
indicate that the operation is intended to manage objects within the
DSA (server) Information Tree. The control causes Directory-specific
entries (DSEs), regardless of type, to be treated as normal entries
allowing clients to interrogate and update these entries using LDAP
operations.
A client MAY specify the following control when issuing an add,
compare, delete, modify, modifyDN, search request or an extended
operation for which the control is defined.
The control type is 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.2. The control criticality
may be TRUE or, if FALSE, absent. The control value is absent.
When the control is present in the request, the server SHALL NOT
generate a referral or continuation reference based upon information
held in referral objects and instead SHALL treat the referral object
as a normal entry. The server, however, is still free to return
referrals for other reasons. When not present, referral objects
SHALL be handled as described above.
The control MAY cause other objects to be treated as normal entries
as defined by subsequent documents.
