public final class PermissiveModifyRequestControl
extends Control

This class provides an implementation of the permissive modify request control, which is supported by a number of servers and may be included in a modify request to indicate that the server should not reject a modify request which attempts to add an attribute value which already exists or remove an attribute value which does not exist. Normally, such modification attempts would be rejected.

The OID for this control is "1.2.840.113556.1.4.1413". It does not have a value.

Example

The following example demonstrates the use of the permissive modify request control to remove a value of "test" from the description attribute, or to do nothing if that value is not contained in the entry.

   Modification mod = new Modification(ModificationType.DELETE,
        "description", "test");
   ModifyRequest modifyRequest = new ModifyRequest(
        "uid=john.doe,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com", mod);
   modifyRequest.addControl(new PermissiveModifyRequestControl());
   LDAPResult modifyResult = connection.modify(modifyRequest);
