SearchResultHandler (OpenDJ Public API Javadoc 7.0.2 Documentation)

```
public interface SearchResultHandler
```
A completion handler for consuming the results of a Search operation.
Connection and Connection objects allow a search result completion handler to be specified when sending Search operation requests to a Directory Server. The handleEntry(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.messages.SearchResultEntry) method is invoked each time a Search Result Entry is returned from the Directory Server. The handleReference(org.forgerock.opendj.ldap.messages.SearchResultReference) method is invoked for each Search Result Reference returned from the Directory Server.
Implementations of these methods should complete in a timely manner so as to avoid keeping the invoking thread from dispatching to other completion handlers.
