@NotMutable @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE) public final class DraftZeilengaLDAPNoOp12RequestControl extends Control
This class provides an implementation of the LDAP no-op control as defined in draft-zeilenga-ldap-noop-12. This control may be included in an add, delete, modify, or modify DN request to indicate that the server should validate the request but not actually make any changes to the data. It allows the client to verify that the operation would likely succeed (including schema validation, access control checks, and other processing) without making any changes to the server data.
Note that an operation which includes the no-op control will never have aResultCode.SUCCESS
result. Instead, if the operation would likely have completed successfully if the no-op control had not been included, then the server will include a response with theResultCode.NO_OPERATION
result. If the operation would not have been successful, then the result code in the response will be the appropriate result code for that failure. Note that if the response from the server includes theResultCode.NO_OPERATION
result, then the LDAP SDK will not throw an exception but will instead return the response in anLDAPResult
object. There is no corresponding response control.
Note that at the time this control was written, the latest version of the specification may be found in draft-zeilenga-ldap-noop-11. This version of the document does not explicitly specify either the OID that should be used for the control, or the result code that should be used for the associated operation if all other processing is completed successfully but no changes are made as a result of this control. Until such time as these are defined, this implementation uses the OID temporarily assigned for its use by the OpenLDAP Foundation, which is used by at least the OpenLDAP, OpenDS, and the Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 Directory Server implementations.
Example
The following example demonstrates the process for attempting to perform a modify operation including the LDAP no-op control so that the change is not actually applied:ModifyRequest modifyRequest = new ModifyRequest("dc=example,dc=com", new Modification(ModificationType.REPLACE, "description", "new value")); modifyRequest.addControl(new DraftZeilengaLDAPNoOp12RequestControl()); try { LDAPResult result = connection.modify(modifyRequest); if (result.getResultCode() == ResultCode.NO_OPERATION) { // The modification would likely have succeeded if the no-op control // hadn't been included in the request. } else { // The modification would likely have failed if the no-op control // hadn't been included in the request. } } catch (LDAPException le) { // The modification failed even with the no-op control in the request. }
