Spring LDAP

org.springframework.ldap.core.support
Class DefaultIncrementalAttributesMapper

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.ldap.core.support.DefaultIncrementalAttributesMapper
All Implemented Interfaces:
AttributesMapper, IncrementalAttributesMapper

public class DefaultIncrementalAttributesMapper
extends Object
implements AttributesMapper, IncrementalAttributesMapper

Utility class that helps with reading all attribute values from Active Directory using Incremental Retrieval of Multi-valued Properties.

Example usage of this attribute mapper:

     List values = DefaultIncrementalAttributeMapper.lookupAttributeValues(ldapTemplate, theDn, "oneAttribute");
     Attributes attrs = DefaultIncrementalAttributeMapper.lookupAttributeValues(ldapTemplate, theDn, new Object[]{"oneAttribute", "anotherAttribute"});
 
For greater control, e.g. explicitly specifying the requested page size, create and use an instance yourself:

      IncrementalAttributesMapper incrementalAttributeMapper = new DefaultIncrementalAttributeMapper(10, "someAttribute");
      while (incrementalAttributeMapper.hasMore()) {
          ldap.lookup(entrDn, incrementalAttributeMapper.getAttributesForLookup(), incrementalAttributeMapper);
      }

      List values = incrementalAttributeMapper.getValues("someAttribute");
 

NOTE: Instances of this class are highly stateful and must not be reused or shared between threads in any way.

NOTE: Instances of this class can only be used with lookups. No support is given for searches.

Method Detail

mapFromAttributes

public final Object mapFromAttributes(Attributes attributes)
                               throws NamingException
Description copied from interface: AttributesMapper
Map Attributes to an object. The supplied attributes are the attributes from a single SearchResult.

Specified by:
mapFromAttributes in interface AttributesMapper
Specified by:
mapFromAttributes in interface IncrementalAttributesMapper
Parameters:
attributes - attributes from a SearchResult.
Returns:
an object built from the attributes.
Throws:
NamingException - if any error occurs mapping the attributes

getValues

public final List getValues(String attributeName)
Description copied from interface: IncrementalAttributesMapper
Get all of the collected values for the specified attribute.

Specified by:
getValues in interface IncrementalAttributesMapper
Parameters:
attributeName - the attribute to get values for.
Returns:
the collected values for the specified attribute. Will be null if the requested attribute has not been returned by the server (attribute did not exist).
