Interface ReadOnlyAddRequest

All Superinterfaces:
ReadOnlyLDAPRequest, Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
AddRequest

This interface defines a set of methods that may be safely called in an LDAP add request without altering its contents. This interface must not be implemented by any class other than AddRequest.

This interface does not inherently provide the assurance of thread safety for the methods that it exposes, because it is still possible for a thread referencing the object which implements this interface to alter the request using methods not included in this interface. However, if it can be guaranteed that no thread will alter the underlying object, then the methods exposed by this interface can be safely invoked concurrently by any number of threads.
