/**
* Creates a control using this control factory.
*<p>
* The factory is used by the service provider to return controls
* that it reads from the LDAP protocol as specialized control classes.
* Without this mechanism, the provider would be returning
* controls that only contained data in BER encoded format.
*<p>
* Typically, <tt>ctl</tt> is a "basic" control containing
* BER encoded data. The factory is used to create a specialized
* control implementation, usually by decoding the BER encoded data,
* that provides methods to access that data in a type-safe and friendly
* manner.
* <p>
* For example, a factory might use the BER encoded data in
* basic control and return an instance of a VirtualListReplyControl.
*<p>
* If this factory cannot create a control using the argument supplied,
* it should return null.
* A factory should only throw an exception if it is sure that
* it is the only intended factory and that no other control factories
* should be tried. This might happen, for example, if the BER data
* in the control does not match what is expected of a control with
* the given OID. Since this method throws <tt>NamingException</tt>,
* any other internally generated exception that should be propagated
* must be wrapped inside a <tt>NamingException</tt>.
*
* @param ctl A non-null control.
*
* @return A possibly null Control.
* @exception NamingException If <tt>ctl</tt> contains invalid data that prevents it
* from being used to create a control. A factory should only throw
* an exception if it knows how to produce the control (identified by the OID)
* but is unable to because of, for example invalid BER data.

* If an exception is encountered while creating the control, the

* the algorithm described above.
