@NotMutable @ThreadSafety(level=COMPLETELY_THREADSAFE) public final class PostReadRequestControl extends Control
This class provides an implementation of the LDAP post-read request control as defined in RFC 4527. It may be used to request that the server retrieve a copy of the target entry as it appeared immediately after processing an add, modify, or modify DN operation.
If this control is included in an add, modify, or modify DN request, then the corresponding response may include aPostReadResponseControl
containing a version of the entry as it appeared after applying that change. Note that this response control will only be included if the operation was successful, so it will not be provided if the operation failed for some reason (e.g., if the change would have violated the server schema, or if the requester did not have sufficient permission to perform that operation).
The value of this control should contain a set of requested attributes to include in the entry that is returned. The server should treat this set of requested attributes exactly as it treats the requested attributes from aSearchRequest
. As is the case with a search request, if no attributes are specified, then all user attributes will be included.
Example
The following example demonstrates the use of the pre-read and post-read controls. It will modify an entry to increment the value of thetest-counter
attribute by one, and will use the pre-read and post-read controls to determine what the previous and updated values are:// Create a modify request that we can use to increment the value of a // custom attribute named "test-counter". ModifyRequest modifyRequest = new ModifyRequest( "uid=test.user,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com", new Modification(ModificationType.INCREMENT, "test-counter", // The attribute to increment. "1")); // The amount by which to increment the value. // Update the modify request to add both pre-read and post-read request // controls to see what the entry value was before and after the change. // We only care about getting the test-counter attribute. modifyRequest.setControls( new PreReadRequestControl("test-counter"), new PostReadRequestControl("test-counter")); // Process the modify operation in the server. LDAPResult modifyResult; try { modifyResult = connection.modify(modifyRequest); // If we got here, then the modification should have been successful. } catch (LDAPException le) { // This indicates that the operation did not complete successfully. modifyResult = le.toLDAPResult(); ResultCode resultCode = le.getResultCode(); String errorMessageFromServer = le.getDiagnosticMessage(); } LDAPTestUtils.assertResultCodeEquals(modifyResult, ResultCode.SUCCESS); // Get the pre-read and post-read response controls from the server and // retrieve the before and after values for the test-counter attribute. LDAPTestUtils.assertHasControl(modifyResult, PreReadResponseControl.PRE_READ_RESPONSE_OID); PreReadResponseControl preReadResponse = PreReadResponseControl.get(modifyResult); Integer beforeValue = preReadResponse.getEntry().getAttributeValueAsInteger("test-counter"); LDAPTestUtils.assertHasControl(modifyResult, PostReadResponseControl.POST_READ_RESPONSE_OID); PostReadResponseControl postReadResponse = PostReadResponseControl.get(modifyResult); Integer afterValue = postReadResponse.getEntry().getAttributeValueAsInteger("test-counter");

PostReadRequestControl
public PostReadRequestControl(java.lang.String... attributes)
Creates a new post-read request control that will retrieve the specified set of attributes from the target entry. It will be marked critical.- Parameters:
attributes
- The set of attributes to retrieve from the target entry. It behaves in the same way as the set of requested attributes for a search operation. If this is empty ornull
, then all user attributes will be returned.
-
PostReadRequestControl
public PostReadRequestControl(boolean isCritical, java.lang.String... attributes)
Creates a new post-read request control that will retrieve the specified set of attributes from the target entry.- Parameters:
isCritical
- Indicates whether this control should be marked critical.attributes
- The set of attributes to retrieve from the target entry. It behaves in the same way as the set of requested attributes for a search operation. If this is empty ornull
, then all user attributes will be returned.
-
PostReadRequestControl
public PostReadRequestControl(Control control) throws LDAPException
Creates a new post-read request control which is decoded from the provided generic control.- Parameters:
control
- The generic control to be decoded as a post-read request control.- Throws:
LDAPException
- If the provided control cannot be decoded as a post-read request control.

getAttributes
public java.lang.String[] getAttributes()
Retrieves the set of attributes that will be requested for inclusion in the entry returned in the response control.- Returns:
- The set of attributes that will be requested for inclusion in the entry returned in the response control, or an empty array if all user attributes should be returned.
-
getControlName
public java.lang.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.- Overrides:
