@ThreadSafety(level=NOT_THREADSAFE)
public final class LDAPSearch
extends LDAPCommandLineTool
implements UnsolicitedNotificationHandler

This class provides an implementation of an LDAP command-line tool that may be used to issue searches to a directory server. Matching entries will be output in the LDAP data interchange format (LDIF), to standard output and/or to a specified file. This is a much more full-featured tool than the LDAPSearch tool, and includes a number of features only intended for use with Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 server products.

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.

Specified by:

getToolName in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

The name for this tool.

getToolDescription

@NotNull
public java.lang.String getToolDescription()

Overrides:

getToolVersion in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

A version string for this tool, or null if none is available.

getMinTrailingArguments

public int getMinTrailingArguments()

Retrieves the minimum number of unnamed trailing arguments that must be provided for this tool. If a tool requires the use of trailing arguments, then it must override this method and the CommandLineTool.getMaxTrailingArguments() arguments to return nonzero values, and it must also override the CommandLineTool.getTrailingArgumentsPlaceholder() method to return a non-null value.

Overrides:

getMinTrailingArguments in class CommandLineTool

The minimum number of unnamed trailing arguments that may be provided for this tool. A value of zero indicates that the tool may be invoked without any trailing arguments.

getMaxTrailingArguments

public int getMaxTrailingArguments()

Retrieves the maximum number of unnamed trailing arguments that may be provided for this tool. If a tool supports trailing arguments, then it must override this method to return a nonzero value, and must also override the CommandLineTool.getTrailingArgumentsPlaceholder() method to return a non-null value.

Overrides:

getMaxTrailingArguments in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

The maximum number of unnamed trailing arguments that may be provided for this tool. A value of zero indicates that trailing arguments are not allowed. A negative value indicates that there should be no limit on the number of trailing arguments.

getTrailingArgumentsPlaceholder

@NotNull
public java.lang.String getTrailingArgumentsPlaceholder()

Retrieves a placeholder string that should be used for trailing arguments in the usage information for this tool.

Overrides:

getTrailingArgumentsPlaceholder in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

A placeholder string that should be used for trailing arguments in the usage information for this tool, or null if trailing arguments are not supported.

supportsInteractiveMode

public boolean supportsInteractiveMode()

Indicates whether this tool should provide support for an interactive mode, in which the tool offers a mode in which the arguments can be provided in a text-driven menu rather than requiring them to be given on the command line. If interactive mode is supported, it may be invoked using the "--interactive" argument. Alternately, if interactive mode is supported and CommandLineTool.defaultsToInteractiveMode() returns true, then interactive mode may be invoked by simply launching the tool without any arguments.

Overrides:

supportsInteractiveMode in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool supports interactive mode, or false if not.

defaultsToInteractiveMode

public boolean defaultsToInteractiveMode()

Indicates whether this tool defaults to launching in interactive mode if the tool is invoked without any command-line arguments. This will only be used if CommandLineTool.supportsInteractiveMode() returns true.

Overrides:

defaultsToInteractiveMode in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool defaults to using interactive mode if launched without any command-line arguments, or false if not.

supportsPropertiesFile

public boolean supportsPropertiesFile()

Indicates whether this tool supports the use of a properties file for specifying default values for arguments that aren't specified on the command line.

Overrides:

supportsPropertiesFile in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool supports the use of a properties file for specifying default values for arguments that aren't specified on the command line, or false if not.

supportsDebugLogging

protected boolean supportsDebugLogging()

Indicates whether this tool supports the ability to generate a debug log file. If this method returns true, then the tool will expose additional arguments that can control debug logging.

supportsDebugLogging in class CommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool supports the ability to generate a debug log file, or false if not.

defaultToPromptForBindPassword

protected boolean defaultToPromptForBindPassword()

Indicates whether this tool should default to interactively prompting for the bind password if a password is required but no argument was provided to indicate how to get the password.

Overrides:

defaultToPromptForBindPassword in class LDAPCommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool should default to interactively prompting for the bind password, or false if not.

includeAlternateLongIdentifiers

protected boolean includeAlternateLongIdentifiers()

Indicates whether the LDAP-specific arguments should include alternate versions of all long identifiers that consist of multiple words so that they are available in both camelCase and dash-separated versions.

Overrides:

includeAlternateLongIdentifiers in class LDAPCommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool should provide multiple versions of long identifiers for LDAP-specific arguments, or false if not.

supportsSSLDebugging

protected boolean supportsSSLDebugging()

Indicates whether this tool should provide a command-line argument that allows for low-level SSL debugging. If this returns true, then an "--enableSSLDebugging" argument will be added that sets the "javax.net.debug" system property to "all" before attempting any communication.

Overrides:

supportsSSLDebugging in class LDAPCommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool should offer an "--enableSSLDebugging" argument, or false if not.

getSuppressedShortIdentifiers

@NotNull
protected java.util.Set<java.lang.Character> getSuppressedShortIdentifiers()

Indicates whether this tool supports creating connections to multiple servers. If it is to support multiple servers, then the "--hostname" and "--port" arguments will be allowed to be provided multiple times, and will be required to be provided the same number of times. The same type of communication security and bind credentials will be used for all servers.

Overrides:

supportsMultipleServers in class LDAPCommandLineTool

Returns:

true if this tool supports creating connections to multiple servers, or false if not.
