All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
@NotMutable @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE) public final class GeneratePasswordRequestControl extends Control
This class provides a request control that can be included in an add request to indicate that the server should generate a password for the new account. If the add operation is processed successfully, then the generated password will be included in the GeneratePasswordResponseControl in the add result.
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.

The OID for this control is 1.3.6.1.4.1.30221.2.5.58, the criticality may be either true or false, and it does not have a value.
