As I was looking at LDAPMessage.nextElement()
I wondered how the API should communicate to the
application that an LDAP error has occurred on the
connection such as TIMEOUT. We cannot throw
an LDAPException because that violates the
Enumeration contract.
Should the description be extended to include
returned value may be
an LDAPEntry, an LDAPResponse, or an
LDAPReferralException
where an LDAPResponse is returned on error
cases and encapsulates
the error code.
