Differences from 2.0 Perl API:
- Perl 5.6 is supported
- backend methods return actual LDAP result codes, not
true/false; this gives the Perl module finer control
of the error returned to the client
- a filterSearchResults configuration file directive was
added to tell the backend glue that the results returned
from the Perl module are candidates only
- the "init" method is called after the backend has been
initialized - this lets you do some initialization after
*all* configuration file directives have been read
- the interface for the search method is improved to
pass the scope, deferencing policy, size limit, etc.
See SampleLDAP.pm for details.
