047/**
048 * This interface defines a method that may be invoked if an unsolicited
049 * notification is received from the directory server.  An unsolicited
050 * notification handler should be defined in the {@link LDAPConnectionOptions}
051 * for an {@link LDAPConnection} to be called whenever an unsolicited
052 * notification is received for that connection.
053 * <BR><BR>
054 * An unsolicited notification is a type of extended response that is sent from
055 * the server to the client without a corresponding request, and it may be used
056 * to alert the client of a significant server-side event.  For example,
057 * section 4.4.1 of <A HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4511.txt">RFC 4511</A>
058 * defines a notice of disconnection unsolicited notification that can be used
059 *  by the server to inform the client that it is about to close the connection.
060 * <BR><BR>
061 * Implementations of this interface should be threadsafe to ensure that
062 * multiple connections will be able to safely use the same
063 * {@code UnsolicitedNotificationHandler} instance.
