    public final class AttributeNameArgumentValueValidator
    extends ArgumentValueValidator
    implements java.io.Serializable
    This class provides an implementation of an argument value validator that is expected to be used with a string argument and ensures that all values for the argument are valid attribute type names (or numeric OIDs) or attribute descriptions (a name or OID with attribute options). It can optionally use a provided schema to verify that the specified attribute type is defined.
