Practical Spring LDAP is your guide to developing Java-based
enterprise applications using the Spring LDAP Framework. This book
explains the purpose and fundamental concepts of LDAP before giving a
comprehensive tour of the latest version, Spring LDAP 1.3.2. It provides
a detailed treatment of LDAP controls and the new features of Spring
LDAP 1.3.2 such as Object Directory Mapping and LDIF parsing.
LDAP has become the de-facto standard for storing and accessing
information in enterprises. Despite its widespread adoption, developers
often struggle when it comes to using this technology effectively. The
traditional JNDI approach has proven to be painful and has resulted in
complex, less modular applications. The Spring LDAP Framework provides
an ideal alternative.
