Class IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable

    @NotMutable
    @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE)
    public final class IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl
    extends Control
    This class provides an implementation of an LDAP control that can be used to request that the Directory Server ignore the NO-USER-MODIFICATION flag for attribute types. It may be included in an add request to allow the client to include attributes which are not normally allowed to be externally specified (e.g., entryUUID, creatorsName, modifiersName, etc.). This control does not have a value, and there is no corresponding response control.
    NOTE: This class, and other classes within the com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds package structure, are only supported for use against Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 server products. These classes provide support for proprietary functionality or for external specifications that are not considered stable or mature enough to be guaranteed to work in an interoperable way with other types of LDAP servers.

    Example

    The following example demonstrates the process for attempting to perform an add operation including the ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION control so that an entry can be added which already includes the creatorsName and createTimestamp attributes:
     AddRequest addRequest = new AddRequest("dc=example,dc=com",
          new Attribute("objectClass", "top", "domain"),
          new Attribute("dc", "example"),
          new Attribute("creatorsName", "cn=Admin User DN"),
          new Attribute("createTimestamp", "20080101000000Z"));
     addRequest.addControl(new IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl());
    
     try
     {
       LDAPResult result = connection.add(addRequest);
       // The entry was added successfully.
     }
     catch (LDAPException le)
     {
       // The attempt to add the entry failed.
     }

      • IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl

        public IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl​(boolean isCritical)
        Creates a new ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control with the given criticality.
        Parameters:
        isCritical - Indicates whether the control should be considered critical.
      • IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl

        public IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl​(@NotNull
                                                      Control control)
                                               throws LDAPException
        Creates a new ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control which is decoded from the provided generic control.
        Parameters:
        control - The generic control to be decoded as an ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control.
        Throws:
        LDAPException - If the provided control cannot be decoded as an ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control.
    • Method Detail

      • getControlName

        @NotNull
        public java.lang.String getControlName()
        Retrieves the user-friendly name for this control, if available. If no user-friendly name has been defined, then the OID will be returned.
        Overrides:
        getControlName in class Control
        Returns:
        The user-friendly name for this control, or the OID if no user-friendly name is available.
      • toJSONControl

        @NotNull
        public JSONObject toJSONControl()
        Retrieves a representation of this ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control as a JSON object. The JSON object uses the following fields (note that since this control does not have a value, neither the value-base64 nor value-json fields may be present):
        • oid -- A mandatory string field whose value is the object identifier for this control. For the ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control, the OID is "1.3.6.1.4.1.30221.2.5.5".
        • control-name -- An optional string field whose value is a human-readable name for this control. This field is only intended for descriptive purposes, and when decoding a control, the oid field should be used to identify the type of control.
        • criticality -- A mandatory Boolean field used to indicate whether this control is considered critical.
        Overrides:
        toJSONControl in class Control
        Returns:
        A JSON object that contains a representation of this control.
      • decodeJSONControl

        @NotNull
        public static IgnoreNoUserModificationRequestControl decodeJSONControl​(@NotNull
                                                                               JSONObject controlObject,
                                                                               boolean strict)
                                                                        throws LDAPException
        Attempts to decode the provided object as a JSON representation of an ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control.
        Parameters:
        controlObject - The JSON object to be decoded. It must not be null.
        strict - Indicates whether to use strict mode when decoding the provided JSON object. If this is true, then this method will throw an exception if the provided JSON object contains any unrecognized fields. If this is false, then unrecognized fields will be ignored.
        Returns:
        The ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control that was decoded from the provided JSON object.
        Throws:
        LDAPException - If the provided JSON object cannot be parsed as a valid ignore NO-USER-MODIFICATION request control.
      • toString

        public void toString​(@NotNull
                             java.lang.StringBuilder buffer)
        Appends a string representation of this LDAP control to the provided buffer.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Control
        Parameters:
        buffer - The buffer to which to append the string representation of this buffer.
