.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
These routines support the use of LDAP URLs (Uniform Resource Locators)
|
|
as detailed in RFC 2255. LDAP URLs look like this:
|
|
.nf
|
|
|
|
\fBldap://\fP\fIhostport\fP\fB/\fP\fIdn\fP[\fB?\fP\fIattrs\fP[\fB?\fP\fIscope\fP[\fB?\fP\fIfilter\fP[\fB?\fP\fIexts\fP]]]]
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
\fIhostport\fP is a host name with an optional ":portnumber"
|
|
\fIdn\fP is the search base
|
|
\fIattrs\fP is a comma separated list of attributes to request
|
|
\fIscope\fP is one of these three strings:
|
|
base one sub (default=base)
|
|
\fIfilter\fP is filter
|
|
\fIexts\fP are recognized set of LDAP and/or API extensions.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
ldap://ldap.example.net/dc=example,dc=net?cn,sn?sub?(cn=*)
|
|
|
|
.fi
|
|
.LP
|
|
URLs that are wrapped in angle-brackets and/or preceded by "URL:" are also
|
|
tolerated. Alternative schemes such as ldaps:// and ldapi:// may be
|
|
parsed using the below routines as well.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B ldap_is_ldap_url()
|
|
returns a non-zero value if \fIurl\fP looks like an LDAP URL (as
|
|
opposed to some other kind of URL). It can be used as a quick check
|
|
for an LDAP URL; the
|
|
.B ldap_url_parse()
|
|
routine should be used if a more thorough check is needed.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B ldap_url_parse()
|
|
breaks down an LDAP URL passed in \fIurl\fP into its component pieces.
|
|
If successful, zero is returned, an LDAP URL description is
|
|
allocated, filled in, and \fIludpp\fP is set to point to it. If an
|
|
error occurs, a non-zero URL error code is returned.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.B ldap_free_urldesc()
|
|
should be called to free an LDAP URL description that was obtained from
|
|
a call to
|
|
.B ldap_url_parse().
