Class SoftDeleteResponseControl

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

This class provides a response control that holds information about the soft-deleted entry that results from a soft delete request, and may also be included in a search result entry which represents a soft-deleted entry. The value of this control will be the DN of the soft-deleted entry.
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 has an OID of 1.3.6.1.4.1.30221.2.5.21, a criticality of false, and a value that is simply the string representation of the new DN for the soft-deleted entry.

See the documentation for the SoftDeleteRequestControl class for an example demonstrating the use of this control.

    • 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.
      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.
    • getSoftDeletedEntryDN

      Retrieves the DN of the entry containing the soft-deleted representation of the target entry.
      Returns:
      The DN of the entry containing the soft-deleted representation of the target entry.
    • get

      Extracts a soft delete response control from the provided delete result.
      Parameters:
      deleteResult - The delete result from which to retrieve the soft delete response control.
      Returns:
      The soft delete response control contained in the provided delete result, or null if the result did not contain a soft delete response control.
      Throws:
      LDAPException - If a problem is encountered while attempting to decode the soft delete response control contained in the provided result.
    • 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.
      Overrides:
      getControlName in class Control
      Returns:
      The user-friendly name for this control, or the OID if no user-friendly name is available.
    • toJSONControl

      Retrieves a representation of this soft delete response control as a JSON object. The JSON object uses the following fields:
      • oid -- A mandatory string field whose value is the object identifier for this control. For the soft delete response control, the OID is "1.3.6.1.4.1.30221.2.5.21".
      • 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 soft delete response 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 soft delete response 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:
        • soft-deleted-entry-dn -- A string field whose value is the DN of the soft-deleted entry that was created from the original entry.
      Overrides:
      toJSONControl in class Control
      Returns:
      A JSON object that contains a representation of this control.
    • decodeJSONControl

      @NotNull public static SoftDeleteResponseControl decodeJSONControl(@NotNull JSONObject controlObject, boolean strict) throws LDAPException
      Attempts to decode the provided object as a JSON representation of a soft delete response control.
      Parameters:
      controlObject - The JSON object to be decoded. It must not be null.
      strict - Indicates whether to use strict mode when decoding the provided JSON object. If this is true, then this method will throw an exception if the provided JSON object contains any unrecognized fields. If this is false, then unrecognized fields will be ignored.
      Returns:
      The soft delete response control that was decoded from the provided JSON object.
      Throws:
      LDAPException - If the provided JSON object cannot be parsed as a valid soft delete response control.
    • toString

      public void toString(@NotNull StringBuilder buffer)
      Appends a string representation of this LDAP control to the provided buffer.
      Overrides:
      toString in class Control
      Parameters:
      buffer - The buffer to which to append the string representation of this buffer.
