stopTLS() public method

Stops Transport Layer Security(TLS) on the LDAPConnection and reverts back to an anonymous state. @throws LDAPException This can occur for the following reasons:
  • StartTLS has not been called before stopTLS
  • There exists outstanding messages that have not received all responses
  • The sever was not able to support the operation

Note: The Sun and IBM implementions of JSSE do not currently allow stopping TLS on an open Socket. In order to produce the same results this method currently disconnects the socket and reconnects, giving the application an anonymous connection to the server, as required by StopTLS
