LDAPListAttribute (Function)

In french: LDAPListeAttribut

Lists the object attributes in an LDAP server.

Remark: This function is used to fetch the entire LDAP object locally (attributes and values of attributes).

Example

See additional examples

// Find the attributes
sListAttributes is string
sListAttributes = LDAPListAttribute("MySession", "DC=pcs,DC=local")

Syntax

<Result> = LDAPListAttribute(<LDAP session> , <Object DN>)

<Result>: Character string

List of attributes,
Empty string ("") if no attribute is associated with the object. The different attributes are separated by "CR" characters (Carriage Return).
If an error occurred, <Result> corresponds to an empty string ("") and the ErrorOccurred variable is set to True. ErrorInfo returns more details about the error.

<LDAP session>: Character string (with quotes)

Name of LDAP session used.

<Object DN>: Character string (with quotes)

Distinguished Name (DN) of object whose attributes are sought.

Remarks

LDAP server and local LDAP object

The LDAP server contains LDAP objects.

The local LDAP object is an LDAP object fetched from the server.

Updating the local LDAP object

When a read LDAP function is run (LDAPListAttribute, LDAPNbValue, LDAPValue), the server object is entirely fetched back in order to limit the communications with the server. Therefore, if these read functions are called several times with the same DN, the communication with the server is established by the first call. The other calls will read the local object.

LDAPListAttribute does not update the local LDAP object if the DN passed in parameter is identical to the last DN passed in parameter to one of the following functions: LDAPListAttribute, LDAPNbValue, LDAPValue. However, if LDAPValidateAdd and LDAPValidateModify have been used with this same DN, the local object is automatically updated.
