			<title>Working With Entry Attributes</title>

			<para>When you get an entry object, chances are you want to handle attribute
			values as objects. The OpenDJ LDAP SDK provides the
			<literal>Entry.parseAttribute()</literal> method and an
			<literal>AttributeParser</literal> with methods for a variety of attribute
			value types. You can use these methods to get attribute values as
			objects.</para>
