[ldap-sdk-discuss] UnboundID LDAP SDK for Java 4.0.8

[Neil W. <nei...@pi...>]

We have just released version 4.0.8 of the UnboundID LDAP SDK for Java. It
is available for download from the releases page of our GitHub repository (
https://github.com/pingidentity/ldapsdk/releases), from the Files page of
our SourceForge repository (https://sourceforge.net/projects/ldap-sdk/files/),
and from the Maven Central Repository (
https://search.maven.org/search?q=g:com.unboundid%20AND%20a:unboundid-ldapsdk&core=gav
).

The most significant changes included in this release are:

* Fixed a bug in the modrate tool that could cause it to use a fixed string
instead of a randomly generated one as the value to use in modifications.

* Fixed an address caching bug in the RoundRobinDNSServerSet class. An
inverted comparison could cause it to use cached addresses after they
expired, and to cached addresses that weren’t expired.

* Updated the ldapmodify tool to remove the restriction that prevented
using arbitrary controls with an LDAP transaction or the Ping-proprietary
multi-update extended operation.

* Updated a number of locations in the code that caught Throwable so that
they re-throw the original Throwable instance (after performing appropriate
cleanup) if that instance was an Error or perhaps a RuntimeException.

* Added a number of JSONObject convenience methods to make it easier to get
the value of a specified field as a string, Boolean, number, object, array,
or null value.

* Added a StaticUtils.toArray convenience method that can be useful for
converting a collection to an array when the type of element in the
collection isn’t known at compile time.

* Added support for parsing audit log messages generated by the Ping
Identity Directory Server for versions 7.1 and later, including generating
LDIF change records that can be used to revert change records (if the audit
log is configured to record changes in a reversible form).
