Interface SchemaSyntax

public interface SchemaSyntax

Defines the standard data types for the values within specified attribute types stored in the directory.

An attribute type consists of a single data type for which syntax matching rules and qualifiers have been specified. Matching rules indicate the characteristics that are significant when comparing two values of the same syntax. The three primary matching rules are: equality, substrings, and ordering. The qualifiers or directives that are defined for comparison include ignoring case, dashes, and spaces. Other qualifiers allow only digits or only printable characters.

Field Summary

static java.lang.String	ATTR_FLAGS Represents the Flags attribute ID for syntax definitions.
static java.lang.String	ATTR_ID Integer used to identify each attribute.
static int	DS_IGNORE_CASE Attribute syntax will support ignoring case in strings.
static int	DS_IGNORE_DASH Attribute syntax will support ignoring dashes in strings.
static int	DS_IGNORE_SPACE Attribute syntax will support ignoring spaces in strings.
static int	DS_ONLY_DIGITS Attribute syntax will support only digits.
static int	DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE Attribute syntax will support only printable characters.
static int	DS_SINGLE_VALUED Attribute syntax will be single valued.
static int	DS_SIZEABLE Attribute syntax will support sizeable character strings.
static int	DS_STRING Attribute syntax will be of String type.
static int	DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL Attribute syntax will support the Equals matching rule.
static int	DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER Attribute syntax will support ordering.

Field Detail

ATTR_ID

public static final java.lang.String ATTR_ID

Integer used to identify each attribute.

(ATTR_ID = "ID")

ATTR_FLAGS

public static final java.lang.String ATTR_FLAGS

Represents the Flags attribute ID for syntax definitions. This flag attribute constant contains a value that is a combination of the following flags that restrict the attribute value:

• DS_STRING
• DS_SINGLE_VALUED
• DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER
• DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL
• DS_IGNORE_CASE
• DS_IGNORE_SPACE
• DS_IGNORE_DASH
• DS_ONLY_DIGITS
• DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE
• DS_SIZEABLE

(ATTR_FLAGS = "Flags")

DS_STRING

public static final int DS_STRING

Attribute syntax will be of String type.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_STRING value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_STRING = NetJNI.DS_STRING)

DS_SINGLE_VALUED

public static final int DS_SINGLE_VALUED

Attribute syntax will be single valued.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_SINGLE_VALUED value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_SINGLE_VALUED = NetJNI.DS_SINGLE_VALUED)

DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER

public static final int DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER

Attribute syntax will support ordering.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER = NetJNI.DS_SUPPORTS_ORDER)

DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL

public static final int DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL

Attribute syntax will support the Equals matching rule.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL = NetJNI.DS_SUPPORTS_EQUAL)

DS_IGNORE_CASE

public static final int DS_IGNORE_CASE

Attribute syntax will support ignoring case in strings.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_IGNORE_CASE value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_IGNORE_CASE = NetJNI.DS_IGNORE_CASE)

DS_IGNORE_SPACE

public static final int DS_IGNORE_SPACE

Attribute syntax will support ignoring spaces in strings.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_IGNORE_SPACE value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_IGNORE_SPACE = NetJNI.DS_IGNORE_SPACE)

DS_IGNORE_DASH

public static final int DS_IGNORE_DASH

Attribute syntax will support ignoring dashes in strings.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_IGNORE_DASH value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_IGNORE_DASH = NetJNI.DS_IGNORE_DASH)

DS_ONLY_DIGITS

public static final int DS_ONLY_DIGITS

Attribute syntax will support only digits.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_ONLY_DIGITS value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_ONLY_DIGITS = NetJNI.DS_ONLY_DIGITS)

DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE

public static final int DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE

Attribute syntax will support only printable characters.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE = NetJNI.DS_ONLY_PRINTABLE)

DS_SIZEABLE

public static final int DS_SIZEABLE

Attribute syntax will support sizeable character strings.

With this value set for an attribute, the DS_SIZEABLE value will be stored in the Flags constant.

(DS_SIZEABLE = NetJNI.DS_SIZEABLE)
