Class SubentriesImpl

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Control, Subentries
    public class SubentriesImpl
extends AbstractControl
implements Subentries
    A simple Subentries Control implementation. This control is described in RFC 3672 : The subentries control MAY be sent with a searchRequest to control the visibility of entries and subentries which are within scope. Non-visible entries or subentries are not returned in response to the request. The subentries control is an LDAP Control whose controlType is 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.1.10.1, criticality is TRUE or FALSE (hence absent), and controlValue contains a BER-encoded BOOLEAN indicating visibility. A controlValue containing the value TRUE indicates that subentries are visible and normal entries are not. A controlValue containing the value FALSE indicates that normal entries are visible and subentries are not. Note that TRUE visibility has the three octet encoding { 01 01 FF } and FALSE visibility has the three octet encoding { 01 01 00 }. The controlValue SHALL NOT be absent. In absence of this control, subentries are not visible to singleLevel and wholeSubtree scope Search requests but are visible to baseObject scope Search requests. There is no corresponding response control. This control is not appropriate for non-Search operations.
