There are several methods that an application will never use:
LDAPConnection.setInputStream
LDAPConnection.getInputStream
LDAPConnection.setOutputStream
LDAPConnection.getOutputStream
LDAPControl.newInstance
It is my feeling that these should not be defined in the Java API
draft,
even though functions like these may be defined as public in
some implementations. These implementions use these in the API
itself,
but the application does not use them.
These functions force an implementation style, but the draft should
not
force any style of implementation. The draft should define only the
application
interfaces.
These methods should be removed from the draft.
