The UnboundID LDAP SDK for Java is a fast, comprehensive, and easy-to-use Java API for communicating with LDAP directory servers and performing related tasks like reading and writing LDIF, encoding and decoding data using base64 and ASN.1 BER, and performing secure communication. This package contains the Commercial Edition of the LDAP SDK, which includes all of the general-purpose functionality contained in the Standard Edition, plus additional functionality specific to UnboundID server products.
