VERSION 1.4 - AUGUST 18, 1999
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
This is primarily a bug fix release, however there are 5 new methods
|
|
introduced as well. Brief descriptions follow in this document. To get
|
|
full examples and a larger summary, see the PerLDAP Programmer's Guide.
|
|
|
|
|
|
New Methods Added
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Entry.pm:
|
|
* getValues() - returns the array of values.
|
|
* move() - move one attribute to another, and delete the original.
|
|
* copy() - copy one attribute to another.
|
|
|
|
Conn.pm:
|
|
* browse() - makes it easy to browse an entry.
|
|
* compare() - compare an attribute value against a DN/entry
|
|
without having to do the search.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bug Fixes and other changes
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Entry.pm:
|
|
* addDNValue() - fixed wrong index for norm.
|
|
* matchValue() - fixed missing normalization in half of case statement.
|
|
* setValue() - remove _delete_ flag if set, fix for saving state.
|
|
* STORE - fixed not ignoring the internal instance variables properly.
|
|
* Fixed numerous bugs for large attribute sets.
|
|
* Fixed bug 4368 ("exists vs. EXISTS").
|
|
* Fixed several loop bugs.
|
|
* Removed all _self_obj_ references, it's obsolete in this
|
|
version.
|
|
* We support each() and keys() now on the Entry object, to loop
|
|
through all attribute names (types).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conn.pm:
|
|
* close() - fixed memory leak.
|
|
* modifyRDN() - fixed problem where we weren't updating the
|
|
appropriate DN in the self object.
|
|
* Fixed bug 3342 (problems adding entries with binary data).
|
|
* getErrorCode()/getErrorString() - return LDAP_SUCCESS if no
|
|
LDAP connection handle.
|
|
* add() - fixed code to handle hash array as docs indicate.
|
|
* update() - optimization for "replace" vs "add/delete", we try to
|
|
use whatever LDAPMod is most efficient.
|
|
|
|
LDIF.pm:
|
|
|
|
* Complete rewrite, by John Kristian <kristian@netscape.com>.
|
|
|
|
API.xs:
|
|
* Fixed memory allocation problems, replacing all memory management
|
|
routines. This solves all known issues with ActiveState Perl.
|
|
* More safety checks around calls to *_free().
|
|
|
|
|
|
Miscellaneous
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
* Various other optimizations on tests and such.
|
|
* Fixed most (all?) known memory leaks.
|
|
* Fixed a lot of problems with Makefile.PL, adding some new targets
|
|
(like "make html"). Add a skeleton to "make test".
|
|
* Fixed numerous small bugs, as reported to Mozilla.
|
|
* We produce less warnings now, and try to "use strict" when
|
|
appropriate.
|
|
* We have a new versioning scheme, conforming to standard
|
|
Perl. We'll change this again when Perl's new versioning system
|
|
is in place (allowing versions like 1.2.3).
