    public final class GenerateSchemaFromSource
    extends CommandLineTool
    implements java.io.Serializable
    This class provides a tool which can be used to generate LDAP attribute type and object class definitions which may be used to store objects created from a specified Java class. The given class must be included in the classpath of the JVM used to invoke the tool, and must be marked with the LDAPObject annotation.

      • GenerateSchemaFromSource

        public GenerateSchemaFromSource​(java.io.OutputStream outStream,
                                        java.io.OutputStream errStream)
        Creates a new instance of this tool.
        Parameters:
        outStream - The output stream to which standard out should be written. It may be null if output should be suppressed.
        errStream - The output stream to which standard error should be written. It may be null if error messages should be suppressed.

      • getToolName

        public java.lang.String getToolName()
        Retrieves the name of this tool. It should be the name of the command used to invoke this tool.
        Specified by:
        getToolName in class CommandLineTool
        Returns:
        The name for this tool.
      • supportsInteractiveMode

        public boolean supportsInteractiveMode()
        Indicates whether this tool should provide support for an interactive mode, in which the tool offers a mode in which the arguments can be provided in a text-driven menu rather than requiring them to be given on the command line. If interactive mode is supported, it may be invoked using the "--interactive" argument. Alternately, if interactive mode is supported and defaultsToInteractiveMode() returns true, then interactive mode may be invoked by simply launching the tool without any arguments.
        Overrides:
        supportsInteractiveMode in class CommandLineTool
        Returns:
        true if this tool supports interactive mode, or false if not.
      • defaultsToInteractiveMode

        public boolean defaultsToInteractiveMode()
        Indicates whether this tool defaults to launching in interactive mode if the tool is invoked without any command-line arguments. This will only be used if supportsInteractiveMode() returns true.
        Overrides:
        defaultsToInteractiveMode in class CommandLineTool
        Returns:
        true if this tool defaults to using interactive mode if launched without any command-line arguments, or false if not.
      • supportsPropertiesFile

        public boolean supportsPropertiesFile()
        Indicates whether this tool supports the use of a properties file for specifying default values for arguments that aren't specified on the command line.
        Overrides:
        supportsPropertiesFile in class CommandLineTool
        Returns:
        true if this tool supports the use of a properties file for specifying default values for arguments that aren't specified on the command line, or false if not.
      • addToolArguments

        public void addToolArguments​(ArgumentParser parser)
                              throws ArgumentException
        Adds the command-line arguments supported for use with this tool to the provided argument parser. The tool may need to retain references to the arguments (and/or the argument parser, if trailing arguments are allowed) to it in order to obtain their values for use in later processing.
        Specified by:
        addToolArguments in class CommandLineTool
        Parameters:
        parser - The argument parser to which the arguments are to be added.
        Throws:
        ArgumentException - If a problem occurs while adding any of the tool-specific arguments to the provided argument parser.
      • getExampleUsages

        public java.util.LinkedHashMap<java.lang.String[],​java.lang.String> getExampleUsages()
        Retrieves a set of information that may be used to generate example usage information. Each element in the returned map should consist of a map between an example set of arguments and a string that describes the behavior of the tool when invoked with that set of arguments.
        Overrides:
        getExampleUsages in class CommandLineTool
        Returns:
        A set of information that may be used to generate example usage information. It may be null or empty if no example usage information is available.
