Class JoinResultControl

java.lang.Object
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.Control
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds.controls.JoinResultControl
All Implemented Interfaces:
DecodeableControl, Serializable
@NotMutable @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE) public final class JoinResultControl extends Control implements DecodeableControl
This class provides an implementation of a control that may be included in a search result entry in response to a join request control to provide a set of entries related to the search result entry. See the class-level documentation for the JoinRequestControl class for additional information and an example demonstrating its use.
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 value of the join result control is encoded as follows: 
   JoinResult ::= SEQUENCE {
        COMPONENTS OF LDAPResult,
        entries     [4] SEQUENCE OF JoinedEntry }

      @NotNull public JoinResultControl decodeControl(@NotNull String oid, boolean isCritical, @Nullable ASN1OctetString value) throws LDAPException
      Creates a new instance of this decodeable control from the provided information.
      Specified by:
      decodeControl in interface DecodeableControl
      Parameters:
      oid - The OID for the control.
      isCritical - Indicates whether the control should be marked critical.
      value - The encoded value for the control. This may be null if no value was provided.
      Returns:
      The decoded representation of this control.
      Throws:
      LDAPException - If the provided information cannot be decoded as a valid instance of this decodeable control.

    • get

      @Nullable public static JoinResultControl get(@NotNull SearchResultEntry entry) throws LDAPException
      Extracts a join result control from the provided search result entry.
      Parameters:
      entry - The search result entry from which to retrieve the join result control.
      Returns:
      The join result control contained in the provided search result entry, or null if the entry did not contain a join result control.

    • getControlName

      @NotNull public String getControlName()
      Retrieves the user-friendly name for this control, if available. If no user-friendly name has been defined, then the OID will be returned.

      • control-name -- An optional string field whose value is a human-readable name for this control. This field is only intended for descriptive purposes, and when decoding a control, the oid field should be used to identify the type of control.
      • criticality -- A mandatory Boolean field used to indicate whether this control is considered critical.
      • value-base64 -- An optional string field whose value is a base64-encoded representation of the raw value for this join result control. Exactly one of the value-base64 and value-json fields must be present.
      • value-json -- An optional JSON object field whose value is a user-friendly representation of the value for this join result control. Exactly one of the value-base64 and value-json fields must be present, and if the value-json field is used, then it will use the following fields:
        • result-code -- An integer field whose value is the numeric representation of the LDAP result code for join processing.

Each of these JSON objects will include a "_dn" string field whose value is the DN of the entry and an optional "_nested-join-results" array field whose values are JSON objects that represent nested join results. Any other fields in the JSON objects represent attributes in the joined entry, with the name of the field representing the name of the attribute, and the value of the field being an array of strings representing the values of that attribute.
