  Hi,

long time, no see :)

I have a proposal about the way we handle the operation results. 
Currently, every operation is returning a Response, and if we want to 
know if the operation has been successful, we have to check the 
LdapResult field. This is not very convenient.

Assuming that when we have issued a synchronous operation, we are 
waiting until we get a response, why can't we have those operations 
throwing a LdapException ?

For async operations, we can also make that the XXXFuture.get() method 
throw the same exception.

thoughts ?
