Description

Matthew Copeland (Migrated from LDAP-286) said:

UnboundId LDAP supports async searches against the directory. When looking in the spring-ldap documentation, I didn't see anything talking about performing async searches. (Did I miss it?) In doing google searches, I've seen some things about using @Async with newer versions of spring to do async operations. The use case I'm looking at is for running possibly hundreds of ldap queries at a time. If spring-ldap can work with the @Async annotation, a quick note about it, any issues to be aware of, and a link over to the appropriate documentation would be very useful. If it can't, then please let me know, and I'll fill out a feature request for async operations in spring-ldap.

Research direction

Start with the spring-ldap documentation and investigate the stated @Async and UnboundId LDAP async-search use cases. Confirm whether Spring LDAP supports this approach, document relevant caveats and link to the appropriate documentation, or record that a separate async-operations feature request is needed.
