Constructor Detail

AuthPasswordSyntax

public AuthPasswordSyntax()

Creates a new instance of this syntax. Note that the only thing that should be done here is to invoke the default constructor for the superclass. All initialization should be performed in the initializeSyntax method.

Method Detail

getSDKSyntax

public org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.schema.Syntax getSDKSyntax(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.schema.Schema schema)

Description copied from class: AttributeSyntax

Returns the SDK Syntax equivalent to this syntax.

This method allow smooth migration to SDK syntax. It will disappear once the the migration to SDK schema is complete, together with this class and all its implementation.

Specified by:

getSDKSyntax in class AttributeSyntax<AttributeSyntaxCfg>

Parameters:

schema - Schema to use to retrieve the syntax

Returns:

the equivalent SDK syntax.

getName

public String getName()

Retrieves the common name for this attribute syntax.

Specified by:

getName in class AttributeSyntax<AttributeSyntaxCfg>

Returns:

The common name for this attribute syntax.

getOID

public String getOID()

Retrieves the OID for this attribute syntax.

Specified by:

getOID in class AttributeSyntax<AttributeSyntaxCfg>

Returns:

The OID for this attribute syntax.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Retrieves a description for this attribute syntax.

Specified by:

getDescription in class AttributeSyntax<AttributeSyntaxCfg>

Returns:

A description for this attribute syntax.

decodeAuthPassword

public static String[] decodeAuthPassword(String authPasswordValue)
                                   throws DirectoryException

Decodes the provided authentication password value into its component parts.

FIXME this is a duplicate of org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.schema.AuthPasswordSyntaxImplTest

Parameters:

authPasswordValue - The authentication password value to be decoded.

Returns:

A three-element array, containing the scheme, authInfo, and authValue components of the given string, in that order.

Throws:

DirectoryException - If a problem is encountered while attempting to decode the value.

isEncoded

public static boolean isEncoded(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.ByteSequence value)

Indicates whether the provided value is encoded using the auth password syntax.

Parameters:

value - The value for which to make the determination.

Returns:

true if the value appears to be encoded using the auth password syntax, or false if not.
