Method Detail

encodeMessage

public ByteBuffer encodeMessage(Message message)
                         throws EncoderException

Generate the PDU which contains the encoded object. The generation is done in two phases : - first, we compute the length of each part and the global PDU length - second, we produce the PDU.

 0x30 L1 
   | 
   +--> 0x02 L2 MessageId  
   +--> ProtocolOp 
   +--> Controls 
   
 L2 = Length(MessageId)
 L1 = Length(0x02) + Length(L2) + L2 + Length(ProtocolOp) + Length(Controls)
 LdapMessageLength = Length(0x30) + Length(L1) + L1
 

Parameters:

message - The message to encode

Returns:

A ByteBuffer that contains the PDU

Throws:

EncoderException - If anything goes wrong.

encodeReferral

public static void encodeReferral(ByteBuffer buffer,
                                  Referral referral)
                           throws EncoderException

Encode the Referral message to a PDU.

Parameters:

buffer - The buffer where to put the PDU

Throws:

EncoderException

computeReferralLength

public static int computeReferralLength(Referral referral)
