Modified by me to dn_*() and attr_*() functions and to use
uidObject and to handle search scopes better. Could use some
more work. A fun project for anyone wanting to learn how
backends work.
Modified dn_parent and dn_rdn to accept be=NULL (to bypass
be_issuffix check). These functions should be generalized
and moved to -lldap. A project for another day.
Separates per backend type from per backend database initialization
and startup. Also supports per type / per backend shutdown.
New frontend startup/shutdown routines are also provided:
slap_init() slap_startup() slap_shutdown() slap_destroy()
New frontend->backend startup/shutdown is managed by:
backend_init() backend_startup() backend_shutdown backend_destroy
backend_init() now calls bi_init() to initial all function pointers
for the backend (excepting bi_init() which is now the only hardcoded
entry point). New entry points are detailed in slap.h struct
backend_info. backend_info is a per database type structure.
Besides the new startup/shutdown entry points, the new interface
also supports per backend type configuration options. One could have:
backend bdb2 (new Berkeley DB 2 backend)
bdb2_home /directory
database bdb2
...
*** This code is fairly experimental ***
*** Much cleanup and testing is still needed ***
see slap.h for details on struct backend_db and backend_info.
Likely broke things for non-posix threadings....
Update -lldap_r implementation to:
remove attribute support
hide thread detachment
provide concurrency accessors
provide initialization function
fix gethostby{addr,name}_r codes (not coverred by HAVE_REENTRANT_FUNCTIONS)
Update servers/libraries to use ldap_pvt_thread_ calls.
Cleanup server codes (no #ifdef HAVE_PTHREAD_THIS or _THATs)!
Removed -llthread
creation codes to provide this field. Update cache_entrydn_cmp
to strcasecmp() the e_ndn instead of e_dn. Note: strcasecmp()
is still used as e_ndn isn't in uppercase. Maybe it should
be. Did not update other codes to use e_ndn. Hence, there
are lots of dn_normalize() calls that could be eliminated.
(The case determination of e_ndn should be made first).
Most function and variable definitions are now preceded by its extern
definition, for error checking. Retyped a number of functions, usually
to return void. Fixed a number of printf format errors.
API changes (in ldap/include):
Added avl_dup_ok, avl_prefixapply, removed ber_fatten (probably typo
for ber_flatten), retyped ldap_sort_strcasecmp, grew lutil.h.
A number of `extern' declarations are left (some added by protoize), to
be cleaned away later. Mostly strdup(), strcasecmp(), mktemp(), optind,
optarg, errno.
