Interface ImportableDataProvider

public interface ImportableDataProvider

A data provider which supports LDIF import functionality.

FIXME: the async APIs used below are a bad fit. We do not want to return an LdapException. We really need a more generic promises API.

FIXME: it would be nice if we can use EntryReader, however we may need to provide an optimized implementation for use in multi-threaded imports. E.g. performing DN checking as early as possible before doing schema validation.

FIXME: import allows you to append, merge, replace entries. Do we need to expose that here?
