Package org.springframework.ldap.odm.tools

Class SchemaToJava

java.lang.Object
org.springframework.ldap.odm.tools.SchemaToJava
public final class SchemaToJava extends Object
This tool creates a Java class representation of a set of LDAP object classes for use with OdmManager.

The schema of a named list of object classes is read from an LDAP directory and used to generate a representative Java class. The Java class is automatically annotated with org.springframework.ldap.odm.annotations for use with OdmManager.

The mapping of LDAP attributes to their Java representations may be configured by supplying the -s flag or the equivalent --syntaxmap flag whose argument is the name of a file with the following structure: 

 # List of attribute syntax to java class mappings

 # Syntax                                          Java class
 # ------                                          ----------

 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.50, java.lang.Integer
 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40, some.other.Class

Syntaxes not included in this map will be represented as String if they are returned as Strings by the JNDI LDAP provider and will be represented as byte[] if they are returned by the provider as byte[].

Command line flags are as follows:

  • -c,--class <class name> Name of the Java class to create. Mandatory.
  • -s,--syntaxmap <map file> Configuration file of LDAP syntaxes to Java classes mappings. Optional.
  • -h,--help Print this help message then exit.
  • -k,--package <package name> Package to create the Java class in. Mandatory.
  • -l,--url <ldap url> Ldap url of the directory service to bind to. Defaults to ldap://127.0.0.1:389. Optional.
  • -o,--objectclasses <LDAP object class lists> Comma separated list of LDAP object classes. Mandatory.
  • -u,--username <dn> DN to bind with. Defaults to "". Optional.
  • -p,--password <password> Password to bind with. Defaults to "". Optional.
  • -t,--outputdir <output directory> Base output directory, defaults to ".". Optional.
