Method Detail

translateEntryToWrite

public Entry translateEntryToWrite(Entry original)
Applies some special transformation or filtering to the original Entry.

Specified by:
translateEntryToWrite in interface LDIFWriterEntryTranslator
Parameters:
original - The original Entry that was to be written.
Returns:
The Entry that should be written. This can be the original parameter Entry, a newly-constructed Entry, or null to signal that this Entry should not be written. Note, however, that if the original entry provided as a parameter is altered, then the change will be visible to anything that references that entry. If you are not sure about whether changes to the original entry are acceptable, it is recommended that you use the duplicate() method to create a copy of the original and make the necessary changes to that duplicate.
