some first thought about the bind operation. I propose 4 methods :
- bind() for an anonymous bind
- bind(String name) for an unauthenticated bind (this is a special case
described in RFC 4513, par 5.1.2)
- bind(String name, String credentials)
- bind(String name, byte[] credentials) Those two methods are standard
bind with a credential as a String or byte[]
We may define a few others, assuming we may want to use some controls.
We also have to deal with SASL bind.
Looks good to me. What about the return value (is it void in all four
cases?) and the case that authentication fails. Throws it an exception,
and if so, is it derived from RuntimeException (I hope so)?
