All Implemented Interfaces:

SimpleLdapOperations

Deprecated.

Core classes are parameterized as of 2.0.

public class SimpleLdapTemplate
extends Object
implements SimpleLdapOperations

Java-5-based convenience wrapper for the classic LdapTemplate, adding some convenient shortcuts and taking advantage of Java 5 Generics. Use the getLdapOperations() method if you need to invoke less commonly used template methods.
