@Mutable @ThreadSafety(level=NOT_THREADSAFE) public final class ControlArgument extends Argument
This class defines an argument that is intended to hold information about one or more LDAP controls. Values for this argument must be in one of the following formats:- oid -- The numeric OID for the control. The control will not be critical and will not have a value.
-
oid:criticality -- The numeric OID followed by a colon and the
criticality. The control will be critical if the criticality value is
any of the following:
true
,t
,yes
,y
,on
, or1
. The control will be non-critical if the criticality value is any of the following:false
,f
,no
,n
,off
, or0
. No other criticality values will be accepted. - oid:criticality:value -- The numeric OID followed by a colon and the criticality, then a colon and then a string that represents the value for the control.
- oid:criticality::base64value -- The numeric OID followed by a colon and the criticality, then two colons and then a string that represents the base64-encoded value for the control.

if the long identifier isnull
.longIdentifier
- The long identifier for this argument. It may not benull
if the short identifier isnull
.description

Method Detail
-
getDefaultValues
public java.util.List<Control> getDefaultValues()
Retrieves the list of default values for this argument, which will be used if no values were provided.- Returns:
- The list of default values for this argument, or
null
if there are no default values.
-
addValueValidator
public void addValueValidator(ArgumentValueValidator validator)
Updates this argument to ensure that the provided validator will be invoked for any values provided to this argument. This validator will be invoked after all other validation has been performed for this argument.- Parameters:
validator
- The argument value validator to be invoked. It must not benull
.
-
addValue
protected void addValue(java.lang.String valueString) throws ArgumentException
Adds the provided value to the set of values for this argument. This method should only be called by the argument parser.- Specified by:
addValue
in classArgument
- Parameters:
valueString
- The string representation of the value.- Throws:
ArgumentException
- If the provided value is not acceptable, if this argument does not accept values, or if this argument already has the maximum allowed number of values.
-
getValue
public Control getValue()
Retrieves the value for this argument, or the default value if none was provided. If there are multiple values, then the first will be returned.- Returns:
- The value for this argument, or the default value if none was
provided, or
null
if there is no value and no default value.
-
getValues
public java.util.List<Control> getValues()
Retrieves the set of values for this argument, or the default values if none were provided.- Returns:
- The set of values for this argument, or the default values if none were provided.
-
getValueStringRepresentations
public java.util.List<java.lang.String> getValueStringRepresentations(boolean useDefault)
Retrieves a list containing the string representations of the values for this argument, if any. The list returned does not necessarily need to include values that will be acceptable to the argument, but it should imply what the values are (e.g., in the case of a boolean argument that doesn't take a value, it may be the string "true" or "false" even if those values are not acceptable to the argument itself).- Specified by:
getValueStringRepresentations
in classArgument
- Parameters:
useDefault
- Indicates whether to use any configured default value if the argument doesn't have a user-specified value.- Returns:
- A string representation of the value for this argument, or an empty list if the argument does not have a value.

Retrieves a human-readable string with information about any constraints that may be imposed for values of this argument.- Overrides:
getValueConstraints

- Returns:
- A human-readable string with information about any constraints
that may be imposed for values of this argument, or
null
if there are none.

- Returns:
- The "clean" copy of this argument.
-
addToCommandLine
protected void addToCommandLine(java.util.List<java.lang.String> argStrings)
