org.ldaptive.handler.AbstractSearchEntryHandler

org.ldaptive.handler.RecursiveEntryHandler

All Implemented Interfaces:

Handler<SearchRequest,SearchEntry>, SearchEntryHandler

public class RecursiveEntryHandler
extends AbstractSearchEntryHandler

This recursively searches based on a supplied attribute and merges those results into the original entry. For the following LDIF:

   dn: uugid=group1,ou=groups,dc=ldaptive,dc=org
   uugid: group1
   member: uugid=group2,ou=groups,dc=ldaptive,dc=org

   dn: uugid=group2,ou=groups,dc=ldaptive,dc=org
   uugid: group2
 

With the following code:

   RecursiveEntryHandler reh = new RecursiveEntryHandler("member", "uugid");
 

Will produce this result for the query (uugid=group1):

   dn: uugid=group1,ou=groups,dc=ldaptive,dc=org
   uugid: group1
   uugid: group2
   member: uugid=group2,ou=groups,dc=ldaptive,dc=org
