Description

For a single-valued attribute Attribute.get(..).getString() properly returns the value whereas Attribute.get(..).toString() is appending a newline character. I'm guessing that this is extraneous.

I have an Entry that is a groupOfUniqueNames:

System.out.println("Group " + nextgroup.get("cn") + " found") produces the output

Group sysAdmin
found

where System.out.println("Group " + nextgroup.get("cn").getString() + " found") produces the output:

Group sysAdmin found
