Class SingleContextSource

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.springframework.ldap.core.support.SingleContextSource
All Implemented Interfaces:
DisposableBean, ContextSource

public class SingleContextSource
extends Object
implements ContextSource, DisposableBean

A ContextSource to be used as a decorator around a target ContextSource to make sure the target is never actually closed. Useful when working with e.g. paged results, as these require the same target to be used.

Constructor Detail

SingleContextSource

public SingleContextSource(DirContext ctx)
Constructor.

Parameters:
ctx - the target DirContext.
Method Detail

getReadOnlyContext

public DirContext getReadOnlyContext()
Description copied from interface: ContextSource
Gets a read-only DirContext. The returned DirContext must be possible to perform read-only operations on.

Specified by:
getReadOnlyContext in interface ContextSource
Returns:
A DirContext instance, never null.

getReadWriteContext

public DirContext getReadWriteContext()
Description copied from interface: ContextSource
Gets a read-write DirContext instance.

Specified by:
getReadWriteContext in interface ContextSource
Returns:
A DirContext instance, never null.

getContext

public DirContext getContext(String principal,
                             String credentials)
Description copied from interface: ContextSource
Gets a DirContext instance authenticated using the supplied principal and credentials. Typically to be used for plain authentication purposes. Note that this method will never make use of native Java LDAP pooling, even though this instance is configured to do so. This is to force password changes in the target directory to take effect as soon as possible.

Specified by:
getContext in interface ContextSource
Parameters:
principal - The principal (typically a distinguished name of a user in the LDAP tree) to use for authentication.
credentials - The credentials to use for authentication.
Returns:
an authenticated DirContext instance, never null.

destroy

public void destroy()
Destroy method that allows the target DirContext to be cleaned up when the SingleContextSource is not going to be used any more.

Specified by:
destroy in interface DisposableBean

doWithSingleContext

public static <T> T doWithSingleContext(ContextSource contextSource,
                                        LdapOperationsCallback<T> callback)
Construct a SingleContextSource and execute the LdapOperationsCallback using the created instance. This makes sure the same connection will be used for all operations inside the LdapOperationsCallback, which is particularly useful when working with e.g. Paged Results as these typically require the exact same connection to be used for all requests involving the same cookie. The SingleContextSource instance will be properly disposed of once the operation has been completed.

By default, the ContextSource.getReadWriteContext() method will be used to create the DirContext instance to operate on.

Parameters:
contextSource - The target ContextSource to retrieve a DirContext from.
callback - the callback to perform the Ldap operations.
Returns:
the result returned from the callback.
Since:
2.0

doWithSingleContext

public static <T> T doWithSingleContext(ContextSource contextSource,
                                        LdapOperationsCallback<T> callback,
                                        boolean useReadOnly,
                                        boolean ignorePartialResultException,
                                        boolean ignoreNameNotFoundException)
Construct a SingleContextSource and execute the LdapOperationsCallback using the created instance. This makes sure the same connection will be used for all operations inside the LdapOperationsCallback, which is particularly useful when working with e.g. Paged Results as these typically require the exact same connection to be used for all requests involving the same cookie.. The SingleContextSource instance will be properly disposed of once the operation has been completed.

Parameters:
contextSource - The target ContextSource to retrieve a DirContext from
callback - the callback to perform the Ldap operations
useReadOnly - if true, use the ContextSource.getReadOnlyContext() method on the target ContextSource to get the actual DirContext instance, if false, use ContextSource.getReadWriteContext().
ignorePartialResultException - Used for populating this property on the created LdapTemplate instance.
ignoreNameNotFoundException - Used for populating this property on the created LdapTemplate instance.
Returns:
the result returned from the callback.
Since:
2.0
