public interface VirtualAttributeCfg
extends Configuration

A server-side interface for querying Virtual Attribute settings.

Virtual Attributes are responsible for dynamically generating attribute values that appear in entries but are not persistently stored in the backend.

Method Detail

configurationClass

java.lang.Class<? extends VirtualAttributeCfg> configurationClass()
Gets the configuration class associated with this Virtual Attribute.

Specified by:
configurationClass in interface Configuration
Returns:
Returns the configuration class associated with this Virtual Attribute.

addChangeListener

void addChangeListener(ConfigurationChangeListener<VirtualAttributeCfg> listener)
Register to be notified when this Virtual Attribute is changed.

Parameters:
listener - The Virtual Attribute configuration change listener.

removeChangeListener

void removeChangeListener(ConfigurationChangeListener<VirtualAttributeCfg> listener)
Deregister an existing Virtual Attribute configuration change listener.

Parameters:
listener - The Virtual Attribute configuration change listener.

getAttributeType

AttributeType getAttributeType()
Gets the "attribute-type" property.

Specifies the attribute type for the attribute whose values are to be dynamically assigned by the virtual attribute.

Returns:
Returns the value of the "attribute-type" property.

getBaseDN

java.util.SortedSet<DN> getBaseDN()
Gets the "base-dn" property.

Specifies the base DNs for the branches containing entries that are eligible to use this virtual attribute.

If no values are given, then the server generates virtual attributes anywhere in the server.

Returns:
Returns an unmodifiable set containing the values of the "base-dn" property.

getConflictBehavior

VirtualAttributeCfgDefn.ConflictBehavior getConflictBehavior()
Gets the "conflict-behavior" property.

Specifies the behavior that the server is to exhibit for entries that already contain one or more real values for the associated attribute.

Returns:
Returns the value of the "conflict-behavior" property.

isEnabled

boolean isEnabled()
Gets the "enabled" property.

Indicates whether the Virtual Attribute is enabled for use.

Returns:
Returns the value of the "enabled" property.

getFilter

java.util.SortedSet<java.lang.String> getFilter()
Gets the "filter" property.

Specifies the search filters to be applied against entries to determine if the virtual attribute is to be generated for those entries.

If no values are given, then any entry is eligible to have the value generated. If one or more filters are specified, then only entries that match at least one of those filters are allowed to have the virtual attribute.

Returns:
Returns an unmodifiable set containing the values of the "filter" property.

getGroupDN

java.util.SortedSet<DN> getGroupDN()
Gets the "group-dn" property.

Specifies the DNs of the groups whose members can be eligible to use this virtual attribute.

If no values are given, then group membership is not taken into account when generating the virtual attribute. If one or more group DNs are specified, then only members of those groups are allowed to have the virtual attribute.

Returns:
Returns an unmodifiable set containing the values of the "group-dn" property.

getJavaClass

java.lang.String getJavaClass()
Gets the "java-class" property.

Specifies the fully-qualified name of the virtual attribute provider class that generates the attribute values.

Returns:
Returns the value of the "java-class" property.
