Spring Boot + +Spring Boot provides a `spring-boot-starter-ldap` starter that aggregates Spring LDAP-related dependencies. +The simplest and preferred way to use the starter is to use

xref:modules.adoc#modules[modules]. + +Spring LDAP builds against Spring Framework 6 but should generally work with any newer version of Spring Framework 5.x. +Many users are likely to run afoul of the fact that Spring LDAP's transitive dependencies resolve Spring Framework 6, which can cause strange classpath problems. +The easiest way to resolve this is to use the `spring-framework-bom` within
