Class PasswordPolicyResponseControl

java.lang.Object
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.Control
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds.controls.PasswordPolicyResponseControl
All Implemented Interfaces:
DecodeableControl, Serializable

This class provides an implementation of the password policy response control as described in draft-behera-ldap-password-policy. It may be used to provide information related to a user's password policy. It may include at most one warning from the set of PasswordPolicyWarningType values and at most one error from the set of PasswordPolicyErrorType values. See the documentation for those classes for more information on the information that may be included. See the PasswordPolicyRequestControl documentation for an example that demonstrates the use of the password policy request and response controls.
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 control has an OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1 and a criticality of false. It must have a value with the following encoding:
   PasswordPolicyResponseValue ::= SEQUENCE {
      warning [0] CHOICE {
         timeBeforeExpiration [0] INTEGER (0 .. maxInt),
         graceAuthNsRemaining [1] INTEGER (0 .. maxInt) } OPTIONAL,
      error   [1] ENUMERATED {
         passwordExpired             (0),
         accountLocked               (1),
         changeAfterReset            (2),
         passwordModNotAllowed       (3),
         mustSupplyOldPassword       (4),
         insufficientPasswordQuality (5),
         passwordTooShort            (6),
         passwordTooYoung            (7),
         passwordInHistory           (8) } OPTIONAL }

    • decodeControl

      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.

    • get

      Extracts a password policy response control from the provided result.
      Parameters:
      result - The result from which to retrieve the password policy response control.
      Returns:
      The password policy response control contained in the provided result, or null if the result did not contain a password policy response control.
      Throws:
      LDAPException - If a problem is encountered while attempting to decode the password policy response control contained in the provided result.
    • getWarningType

      Retrieves the warning type for this password policy response control, if available.
      Returns:
      The warning type for this password policy response control, or null if there is no warning type.
    • getWarningValue

      public int getWarningValue()
      Retrieves the warning value for this password policy response control, if available.
      Returns:
      The warning value for this password policy response control, or -1 if there is no warning type.
    • getErrorType
