NAME

  Mozilla::LDAP::API - Perl methods for LDAP C API calls

 

SYNOPSIS

  use Mozilla::LDAP::API;       or  use Mozilla::LDAP::API qw(:api :ssl :constant);       or  use Mozilla::LDAP::API qw(:api :ssl :apiv3 :constant);       or  use Mozilla::LDAP::API qw(:api :ssl :apiv3 :nspr :constant);

 

DESCRIPTION

This package offers a direct interface to the LDAP C API calls from Perl.It is used internally by the other Mozilla::LDAP modules. It is highlysuggested that you use the object oriented interface inMozilla::LDAP::Conn and Mozilla::LDAP::Entry unless you need to useasynchronous calls or other functionality not available in the OO interface. 

THIS DOCUMENT

This document has a number of known errors that will be corrected in thenext revision. Since it is not expected that users will need to use thisinterface frequently, priority was placed on other documents. You can findexamples of how to actually use the API calls under the test_api directory. 

CREATING AN ADD/MODIFY HASH

For the add and modify routines you will need to generatea list of attributes and values.

You will do this by creating a HASH table. Each attribute in thehash contains associated values. These values can be one of threethings.

  - SCALAR VALUE    (ex. "Clayton Donley")  - ARRAY REFERENCE (ex. ["Clayton Donley","Clay Donley"])  - HASH REFERENCE  (ex. {"r",["Clayton Donley"]}       note:  the value inside the HASH REFERENCE must currently               be an ARRAY REFERENCE.

The key inside the HASH REFERENCE must be one of the following for amodify operation:
  - ``a'' for LDAP_MOD_ADD (Add these values to the attribute)
  - ``r'' for LDAP_MOD_REPLACE (Replace these values in the attribute)
  - ``d'' for LDAP_MOD_DELETE (Delete these values from the attribute)

Additionally, in add and modify operations, you may specify ``b'' if theattributes you are adding are BINARY (ex. ``rb'' to replace binary).

Currently, it is only possible to do one operation per add/modifyoperation, meaning you can't do something like:

   {"d",["Clayton"],"a",["Clay"]}   <-- WRONG!

Using any combination of the above value types, you can do things like:

%ldap_modifications = (
   ``cn'', ``Clayton Donley'',                    # Replace 'cn' values
   ``givenname'', [``Clayton'',``Clay''],           # Replace 'givenname' values
   ``mail'', {``a'',[``donley\@cig.mcel.mot.com''],  #Add 'mail' values
   ``jpegphoto'', {``rb'',[$jpegphotodata]},      # Replace Binary jpegPhoto);

Then remember to call the add or modify operations with a REFERENCE tothis HASH.
