The LDAPInsert Service
The LDAP class is also an implementation of the Service interface. Its execute() method starts
its execution when a user selects the Add link from the navigation.jsp page and submits the
completed form on the insert.jsp page. It then gets the required attributes to create a new
People object and calls the LDAPManager.add() method with a HashMap filled with the
retrieved attributes. The source for the LDAPInsert service is in Listing 21.7.
