Class MemoryBackend


  • public final class MemoryBackend
    extends Object
    A simple in-memory back-end which can be used for testing. The back-end implementations supports the following:
    • add, bind (simple), compare, delete, modify, and search operations, but not modifyDN nor extended operations
    • assertion, pre-, and post- read controls, subtree delete control, and permissive modify control
    • thread safety - supports concurrent operations
    It does not support the following:
    • high performance
    • secure password storage
    • schema checking
    • persistence
    • indexing
    This class can be used in conjunction with the factories defined in Connections to create simple servers as well as mock LDAP connections. For example, to create a mock LDAP connection factory:
     MemoryBackend backend = new MemoryBackend();
     Connection connection = newInternalConnection(backend::handleRequest);
     
    To create a simple LDAP server listening on 0.0.0.0:1389:
     
     MemoryBackend backend = new MemoryBackend();
     LdapServer server = new LdapServer(1389, session -> backend::handleRequest);
