destroySubcontext

public void destroySubcontext(javax.naming.Name name)
                       throws javax.naming.NamingException
Destroys the named context and removes it from the namespace. Any attributes associated with the name are also removed. Intermediate contexts are not destroyed.

This method is idempotent. It succeeds even if the terminal atomic name is not bound in the target context, but throws NameNotFoundException if any of the intermediate contexts do not exist. In a federated naming system, a context from one naming system may be bound to a name in another. One can subsequently look up and perform operations on the foreign context using a composite name. However, an attempt destroy the context using this composite name will fail with NotContextException, because the foreign context is not a "subcontext" of the context in which it is bound. Instead, use unbind() to remove the binding of the foreign context. Destroying the foreign context requires that the destroySubcontext() be performed on a context from the foreign context's "native" naming system.

Specified by:
destroySubcontext in interface javax.naming.Context
Parameters:
name - the name of the context to be destroyed; may not be empty
Throws:
NameNotFoundException - if an intermediate context does not exist
NotContextException - if the name is bound but does not name a context, or does not name a context of the appropriate type
javax.naming.NamingException

destroySubcontext

public abstract void destroySubcontext(java.lang.String name)
                                throws javax.naming.NamingException
Destroys the named context and removes it from the namespace.

Specified by:
destroySubcontext in interface javax.naming.Context
Parameters:
name - the name of the context to be destroyed; may not be empty
Throws:
NameNotFoundException - if an intermediate context does not exist
NotContextException - if the name is bound but does not name a context, or does not name a context of the appropriate type
javax.naming.NamingException

createSubcontext

public javax.naming.Context createSubcontext(javax.naming.Name name)
                                      throws javax.naming.NamingException

                                      throws javax.naming.NamingException
Retrieves the parser associated with the named context. In a federation of namespaces, different naming systems will parse names differently. This method allows an application to get a parser for parsing names into their atomic components using the naming convention of a particular naming system. Within any single naming system, NameParser objects returned by this method must be equal (using the equals() test).

Specified by:
getNameParser in interface javax.naming.Context
Parameters:

                                      throws javax.naming.NamingException
Retrieves the parser associated with the named context.

Specified by:
getNameParser in interface javax.naming.Context
Parameters:
name - the name of the context from which to get the parser
Returns:
a name parser that can parse compound names into their atomic components
Throws:
javax.naming.NamingException - if a naming exception is encountered

                              throws javax.naming.NamingException
Composes the name of this context with a name relative to this context.

Given a name (name) relative to this context, and the name (prefix) of this context relative to one of its ancestors, this method returns the composition of the two names using the syntax appropriate for the naming system(s) involved. That is, if name names an object relative to this context, the result is the name of the same object, but relative to the ancestor context. None of the names may be null.

Specified by:
composeName in interface javax.naming.Context
Parameters:
name - a name relative to this context
prefix - the name of this context relative to one of its ancestors

getEnvironment

public java.util.Hashtable getEnvironment()
                                   throws javax.naming.NamingException
Retrieves the environment in effect for this context. See class description for more details on environment properties. The caller should not make any changes to the object returned: their effect on the context is undefined. The environment of this context may be changed using addToEnvironment() and removeFromEnvironment().

Specified by:

close

public void close()
           throws javax.naming.NamingException
Closes this context. This method releases this context's resources immediately, instead of waiting for them to be released automatically by the garbage collector. This method is idempotent: invoking it on a context that has already been closed has no effect. Invoking any other method on a closed context is not allowed, and results in undefined behaviour.

Specified by:
close in interface javax.naming.Context
Throws:
javax.naming.NamingException - if a naming exception is encountered

getNameInNamespace

public abstract java.lang.String getNameInNamespace()
                                             throws javax.naming.NamingException
Retrieves the full name of this context within its own namespace.

Many naming services have a notion of a "full name" for objects in their respective namespaces. For example, an LDAP entry has a distinguished name, and a DNS record has a fully qualified name. This method allows the client application to retrieve this name. The string returned by this method is not a JNDI composite name and should not be passed directly to context methods. In naming systems for which the notion of full name does not make sense, OperationNotSupportedException is thrown.

Specified by:
getNameInNamespace in interface javax.naming.Context
Returns:
this context's name in its own namespace; never null
Throws:
OperationNotSupportedException - if the naming system does not have the notion of a full name
javax.naming.NamingException - if a naming exception is encountered

Searches in the named context or object for entries that satisfy the given search filter. Performs the search as specified by the search controls.

Specified by:
search in interface javax.naming.directory.DirContext
Parameters:
name - the name of the context or object to search
filterExpr - the filter expression to use for the search. The expression may contain variables of the form "{i}" where i is a nonnegative integer. May not be null.
filterArgs - the array of arguments to substitute for the variables in filterExpr. The value of filterArgs[i] will replace each occurrence of "{i}". If null, equivalent to an empty array.
cons - the search controls that control the search. If null, the default search controls are used (equivalent to (new SearchControls())).
Returns:
an enumeration of SearchResults of the objects that satisy the filter; never null
Throws:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if filterExpr contains {i} expressions where i is outside the bounds of the array filterArgs
InvalidSearchControlsException - if cons contains invalid settings
InvalidSearchFilterException - if filterExpr with filterArgs represents an invalid search filter
