Class IntermediateClientResponseControl

java.lang.Object
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.Control
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds.controls.IntermediateClientResponseControl
All Implemented Interfaces:
DecodeableControl, Serializable
@NotMutable @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE) public final class IntermediateClientResponseControl extends Control implements DecodeableControl
This class defines an intermediate client response control, which can be used to provide a server with information about the client and any downstream clients that it may have.
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.

This control is not based on any public standard. It was originally developed for use with the Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 Directory Server. The value of this control uses the following encoding: 

 IntermediateClientResponse ::= SEQUENCE {
      upstreamResponse       [0] IntermediateClientResponse OPTIONAL,
      upstreamServerAddress  [1] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
      upstreamServerSecure   [2] BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
      serverName             [3] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
      serverSessionID        [4] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
      serverResponseID       [5] OCTET STRING OPTIONAL,
      ... }
See the documentation in the IntermediateClientRequestControl class for an example of using the intermediate client request and response controls.

      public IntermediateClientResponseControl(@Nullable IntermediateClientResponseValue upstreamResponse, @Nullable String upstreamServerAddress, @Nullable Boolean upstreamServerSecure, @Nullable String serverName, @Nullable String serverSessionID, @Nullable String serverResponseID)
      Creates a new intermediate client response control with the provided information. It will not be marked critical.
      Parameters:
      upstreamResponse - A wrapped intermediate client response from an upstream server. It may be null if there is no wrapped upstream response.
      upstreamServerAddress - The IP address or resolvable name of the upstream server system. It may be null if there is no upstream server or its address is not available.
      upstreamServerSecure - Indicates whether communication with the upstream server is secure. It may be null if there is no upstream server or it is not known whether the communication is secure.
      serverName - An identifier string that summarizes the server application that created this intermediate client response. It may be null if that information is not available.
