java.lang.Object
- org.apache.directory.api.ldap.codec.api.ControlDecorator<Control>
- - org.apache.directory.api.ldap.codec.BasicControlDecorator

All Implemented Interfaces:

Asn1Object, CodecControl<Control>, Decorator<Control>, Control
```
public class BasicControlDecorator
extends ControlDecorator<Control>
```
A decorator for handling opaque Control objects where we know nothing about their encoded value. These Controls are generated by default when a ControlFactory for them has not been registered with the LdapApiService.

  - decode
```
public Asn1Object decode(byte[] controlBytes)
                  throws DecoderException
```
    Decodes raw ASN.1 encoded bytes into an Asn1Object for the control.
    
    Parameters:
    
    controlBytes - the encoded control bytes
    
    Returns:
    
    the decoded Asn1Object for the control
    
    Throws:
    
    DecoderException - if anything goes wrong
  - computeLength
```
public int computeLength()
```
    Compute the object length, which is the sum of all inner length.
    
    Returns:
    
    The object's computed length
  - encode
```
public ByteBuffer encode(ByteBuffer buffer)
                  throws EncoderException
```
    Encode the object to a PDU.
    
    Parameters:
    
    buffer - The buffer where to put the PDU
    
    Returns:
    
    The encoded PDU.
