Interface SearchResultHandler

Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface SearchResultHandler
A completion handler for consuming the results of a Search operation.

Connection and Connection objects allow a search result completion handler to be specified when sending Search operation requests to a Directory Server. The handleEntry(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.messages.SearchResultEntry) method is invoked each time a Search Result Entry is returned from the Directory Server. The handleReference(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.messages.SearchResultReference) method is invoked for each Search Result Reference returned from the Directory Server.

Implementations of these methods should complete in a timely manner so as to avoid keeping the invoking thread from dispatching to other completion handlers.
