30   * A syntax definition. Each attribute stored in a directory has a defined
31   * syntax (i.e. data type) which constrains the structure and format of its
32   * values. The description of each syntax specifies how attribute or assertion
33   * values conforming to the syntax are normally represented when transferred in
34   * LDAP operations. This representation is referred to as the LDAP-specific
35   * encoding to distinguish it from other methods of encoding attribute values.
36   * <p>

41   *  4.1.5. LDAP Syntaxes
42   * 
43   *    LDAP Syntaxes of (attribute and assertion) values are described in
44   *    terms of ASN.1 [X.680] and, optionally, have an octet string encoding
45   *    known as the LDAP-specific encoding.  Commonly, the LDAP-specific
46   *    encoding is constrained to string of Universal Character Set (UCS)
47   *    [ISO10646] characters in UTF-8 [UTF-8] form.
48   * 
49   *    Each LDAP syntax is identified by an object identifier (OID).
50   * 
51   *    LDAP syntax definitions are written according to the ABNF:
52   * 
53   *      SyntaxDescription = LPAREN WSP
54   *          numericoid                ; object identifier
55   *          [ SP &quot;DESC&quot; SP qdstring ] ; description
56   *          extensions WSP RPAREN     ; extensions
57   * 
58   *    where:
59   *      [numericoid] is object identifier assigned to this LDAP syntax;
60   *      DESC [qdstring] is a short descriptive string; and
61   *      [extensions] describe extensions.
