Randy Kunkee 11eafc253c Ldaptcl package version 1.2:
- Filter no longer a required controlArray member, defaults to objectclass=*.
- Sets errorCode with LDAP macro string value (better to test than the more
  human readable values).
- Shorten minimum required characters for search scope definitions: now allows
  "base", "one", and "sub".  For the latter two, additional characters are
  ignored.
- Now compiles successfully with -devel branch (though less tested).
- Client cache management code enabled for OpenLDAP versions <= 1.2.4.  (This
  code is relatively untested and feedback is welcome.)
- More installation cleanups to work easily as a dynamically loadable Tcl
  package.

This directory contains an extension to Tcl to interface with an
LDAP server.  While this software is being released to the OpenLDAP
community, it is the authors' intention that support continue (and
be added) for other client libraries as well.  As time goes on, it
is expected that code will converge rather than diverge.

Support is provided for University of Michigan LDAP version 3.3,
OpenLDAP, and Netscape.  The default configuration supports
OpenLDAP 1.2.4.  OpenLDAP 2.x is not yet supported.

It uses GNU autoconf.  It builds and installs without requiring
parallel directories, but it does require that Tcl and Extended Tcl
are installed in the directory pointed to by --prefix (/usr/local
by default).

For further info, try "./configure --help".

For example, I run:

    ./configure  --prefix=/opt/neotcl --enable-shared \
	--with-ldap=/usr/local/ldap

Remember that --prefix must be the same prefix used when building
and installint Tcl.

Netscape configuration has not been well tested, and you may have to
play with the resulting Makefile to get it to work.  In particular,
you will probably need to modify the LDAP_LIBFLAGS.  However, the
C code itself is reasonably well tested with Netscape.

This module will install a regular shell (ldaptclsh) a windowing
shell (ldapwish) a library, a pkgIndex.tcl, and a manpage (ldap.n).

If your Tcl installation has been configured with --enable-shared,
then you must also use --enable-shared here.

Shared libraries and Tcl packages.

If Tcl is built with --enable-shared, AND OpenLDAP (or another version
for that matter) has been build to create -llber and -lldap as shared
libaries, AND you build ldaptcl with --enable-shared, it should be
possible to run a plain Tcl interpreter (eg. tclsh8.0) and do

		package require Ldaptcl

which will install the "ldap" command into the interpreter.

You may need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable appropriately,
or use -R or -W,-rpath ld command options to resolve the search for ldap
and lber libraries.

This package was test built on a Alpha OSF4.0e with the native C
compiler.
