    63       * The factory is used by the service provider to return controls
       
    64       * that it reads from the LDAP protocol as specialized control classes.
       
    65       * Without this mechanism, the provider would be returning
       
    66       * controls that only contained data in BER encoded format.
       
    67       *<p>
       
    68       * Typically, {@code ctl} is a "basic" control containing
       
    69       * BER encoded data. The factory is used to create a specialized
       
    70       * control implementation, usually by decoding the BER encoded data,
       
    71       * that provides methods to access that data in a type-safe and friendly
       
    72       * manner.
       
    73       * <p>
       
    74       * For example, a factory might use the BER encoded data in
       
    75       * basic control and return an instance of a VirtualListReplyControl.
       
    76       *<p>
       
    77       * If this factory cannot create a control using the argument supplied,
       
    78       * it should return null.
       
    79       * A factory should only throw an exception if it is sure that
       
    80       * it is the only intended factory and that no other control factories
       
    81       * should be tried. This might happen, for example, if the BER data
       
    82       * in the control does not match what is expected of a control with
       
    83       * the given OID. Since this method throws {@code NamingException},
       
    84       * any other internally generated exception that should be propagated
       
    85       * must be wrapped inside a {@code NamingException}.

    91       * from being used to create a control. A factory should only throw
       
    92       * an exception if it knows how to produce the control (identified by the OID)
       
    93       * but is unable to because of, for example invalid BER data.
