Class LdapName

java.lang.Object
  javax.naming.ldap.LdapName

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Object>, Name

public class LdapName
extends Object
implements Name
extends Object
implements Name

This class represents a distinguished name as specified by RFC 2253. A distinguished name, or DN, is composed of an ordered list of components called relative distinguished names, or RDNs. Details of a DN's syntax are described in RFC 2253.

This class resolves a few ambiguities found in RFC 2253 as follows:

RFC 2253 leaves the term "whitespace" undefined. The ASCII space character 0x20 (" ") is used in its place.
Whitespace is allowed on either side of ',', ';', '=', and '+'. Such whitespace is accepted but not generated by this code, and is ignored when comparing names.
AttributeValue strings containing '=' or non-leading '#' characters (unescaped) are accepted.

String names passed to LdapName or returned by it use the full Unicode character set. They may also contain characters encoded into UTF-8 with each octet represented by a three-character substring such as "\\B4". They may not, however, contain characters encoded into UTF-8 with each octet represented by a single character in the string: the meaning would be ambiguous.

LdapName will properly parse all valid names, but does not attempt to detect all possible violations when parsing invalid names. It is "generous" in accepting invalid names. The "validity" of a name is determined ultimately when it is supplied to an LDAP server, which may accept or reject the name based on factors such as its schema information and interoperability considerations.

When names are tested for equality, attribute types, both binary and string values, are case-insensitive. String values with different but equivalent usage of quoting, escaping, or UTF8-hex-encoding are considered equal. The order of components in multi-valued RDNs (such as "ou=Sales+cn=Bob") is not significant.

The components of a LDAP name, that is, RDNs, are numbered. The indexes of a LDAP name with n RDNs range from 0 to n-1. This range may be written as [0,n). The right most RDN is at index 0, and the left most RDN is at index n-1. For example, the distinguished name: "CN=Steve Kille, O=Isode Limited, C=GB" is numbered in the following sequence ranging from 0 to 2: {C=GB, O=Isode Limited, CN=Steve Kille}. An empty LDAP name is represented by an empty RDN list.

Concurrent multithreaded read-only access of an instance of LdapName need not be synchronized.

Unless otherwise noted, the behavior of passing a null argument to a constructor or method in this class will cause a NullPointerException to be thrown.

Determines whether two LDAP names are equal. If obj is null or not an LDAP name, false is returned.

Two LDAP names are equal if each RDN in one is equal to the corresponding RDN in the other. This implies both have the same number of RDNs, and each RDN's equals() test against the corresponding RDN in the other name returns true. See Rdn.equals(Object obj) for a definition of RDN equality.

Parameters:: obj - The possibly null object to compare against.
Returns:: true if obj is equal to this LDAP name, false otherwise.
See Also:: hashCode()

Compares this LdapName with the specified Object for order. Returns a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this Name is less than, equal to, or greater than the given Object.

If obj is null or not an instance of LdapName, ClassCastException is thrown.

Ordering of LDAP names follows the lexicographical rules for string comparison, with the extension that this applies to all the RDNs in the LDAP name. All the RDNs are lined up in their specified order and compared lexicographically. See Rdn.compareTo(Object obj) for RDN comparison rules.

If this LDAP name is lexicographically lesser than obj, a negative number is returned. If this LDAP name is lexicographically greater than obj, a positive number is returned.

Specified by:: compareTo in interface Comparable<Object>
Specified by:: compareTo in interface Name

Parameters:: obj - The non-null LdapName instance to compare against.
Returns:: A negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this Name is less than, equal to, or greater than the given obj.
Throws:: ClassCastException - if obj is null or not a LdapName.
See Also:: Comparable.compareTo(Object)

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Computes the hash code of this LDAP name. The hash code is the sum of the hash codes of individual RDNs of this name.

Overrides:: hashCode in class Object

Returns:: An int representing the hash code of this name.
See Also:: equals(java.lang.Object)
