Interface GenericExtendedRequest

All Superinterfaces:

ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>, Request

public interface GenericExtendedRequest
extends ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

A generic Extended request which should be used for unsupported extended operations. Servers list the names of Extended requests they recognize in the supportedExtension attribute in the root DSE. Where the name is not recognized, the server returns ResultCode.PROTOCOL_ERROR (the server may return this error in other cases).

DECODER

static final ExtendedRequestDecoder<GenericExtendedRequest,GenericExtendedResult> DECODER

A decoder which can be used to decode generic extended operation requests.

Method Details

addControl

GenericExtendedRequest addControl(Control control)

Description copied from interface: Request

Adds the provided control to this request.

Specified by:

addControl in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Specified by:

addControl in interface Request

Parameters:

control - The control to be added to this request.

Returns:

This request.

getControl

<C extends Control> C getControl(ControlDecoder<C> decoder,
 DecodeOptions options)
                          throws DecodeException

Description copied from interface: Request

Decodes and returns the first control in this request having an OID corresponding to the provided control decoder.

Specified by:

getControl in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Specified by:

getControl in interface Request

Type Parameters:

C - The type of control to be decoded and returned.

Parameters:

decoder - The control decoder.

options - The set of decode options which should be used when decoding the control.

Returns:

The decoded control, or null if the control is not included with this request.

Throws:

DecodeException - If the control could not be decoded because it was malformed in some way (e.g. the control value was missing, or its content could not be decoded).

getControls

List<Control> getControls()

Description copied from interface: Request

Returns a List containing the controls included with this request. The returned List may be modified if permitted by this request.

Specified by:

getControls in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Specified by:

getControls in interface Request

Returns:

A List containing the controls.

getOID

String getOID()

Description copied from interface: ExtendedRequest

Returns the numeric OID associated with this extended request.

Specified by:

getOID in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Returns:

The numeric OID associated with this extended request.

getResultDecoder

ExtendedResultDecoder<GenericExtendedResult> getResultDecoder()

Description copied from interface: ExtendedRequest

Returns a decoder which can be used to decoded responses to this extended request.

Specified by:

getResultDecoder in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Returns:

A decoder which can be used to decoded responses to this extended request.

getValue

ByteString getValue()

Description copied from interface: ExtendedRequest

Returns the value, if any, associated with this extended request. Its format is defined by the specification of this extended request.

Specified by:

getValue in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Returns:

The value associated with this extended request, or null if there is no value.

hasValue

boolean hasValue()

Description copied from interface: ExtendedRequest

Returns true if this extended request has a value. In some circumstances it may be useful to determine if a extended request has a value, without actually calculating the value and incurring any performance costs.

Specified by:

hasValue in interface ExtendedRequest<GenericExtendedResult>

Returns:

true if this extended request has a value, or false if there is no value.

setOID

GenericExtendedRequest setOID(String oid)

Sets the numeric OID associated with this extended request.

Parameters:

oid - The numeric OID associated with this extended request.

Returns:

This generic extended request.

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - If this generic extended request does not permit the request name to be set.

NullPointerException - If oid was null.

setValue

GenericExtendedRequest setValue(Object value)

Sets the value, if any, associated with this extended request. Its format is defined by the specification of this extended request.

If value is not an instance of ByteString then it will be converted using the ByteString.valueOfObject(Object) method.

Parameters:

value - TThe value associated with this extended request, or null if there is no value. Its format is defined by the specification of this control.

Returns:

This generic extended request.

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - If this generic extended request does not permit the request value to be set.
