Note: this is an abstract component, that cannot be instantiated.
Plugins provide a mechanism for executing custom code at specified points in operation processing and in the course of other events like connection establishment and termination, server startup and shutdown, and LDIF import and export.
The following Plugins are available in the server :
These Plugins inherit from the properties described below.
The following components have a direct COMPOSITION relation TO Plugins :
A description of each property follows.
