Description

The ldap driver provides a small subset of ADOdb commands allowing read-only access to an LDAP database.

Available Methods

The following methods are available for use with the LDAP driver:

Calls to other methods when used with this driver may produce unexpected results or program failure.

Usage

$db = newAdoConnection('ldap');

Custom Functionality

If defined prior to connection, the following variables will be passed as input bind variables. Valid Domain Values for LDAP Connection Options:

OPTION_NAME Type
LDAP_OPT_DEREF integer
LDAP_OPT_SIZELIMIT integer
LDAP_OPT_TIMELIMIT integer
LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION integer
LDAP_OPT_ERROR_NUMBER integer
LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS boolean
LDAP_OPT_RESTART boolean
LDAP_OPT_HOST_NAME string
LDAP_OPT_ERROR_STRING string
LDAP_OPT_MATCHED_DN string
LDAP_OPT_SERVER_CONTROLS array
LDAP_OPT_CLIENT_CONTROLS array

Make sure to set this BEFORE calling Connect() Example:

$LDAP_CONNECT_OPTIONS = Array(
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_DEREF,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>2
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_SIZELIMIT,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>100
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_TIMELIMIT,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>30
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>3
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_ERROR_NUMBER,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>13
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_REFERRALS,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>FALSE
	),
	Array (
		"OPTION_NAME"=>LDAP_OPT_RESTART,
		"OPTION_VALUE"=>FALSE
	)
);
