CursorLdapReferralException while iterating EntryCursor

Hello,

I'm getting CursorLdapReferralException while iterating EntryCursor:
[1] line 258
Could you please explain the meaning of this exception? I was sure if
cursor.next() return the "true" cursor.get() should be successful.

Thanks in advance

You have an entry which is a referral (ie, it has a referral ObjectClass
in it). In this case, you have to catch the exception and handle the hop
yourself.

Atm, the LDAP API does not follow referrals internally, thus the thrown
exception.
