Ldif output appears to add linebreaks at column 78.
The LDIF syntax apparently allows you to continue a line in the LDIF
file by preceeding the continued part(s) with a space. When parsing
an LDIF file if you find a line that starts with a space, you
concatenate the rest of the line to the previous line.
Is there a way of overriding this 'feature' in ldif output so that
lines are unbroken?
I am looking at processing an ldif file in perl, replacing dn's and
then re-entering the ldif file. With the line breaks it makes the
task a nightmare as presumably the output would have to be linebroken
at column 78 again so that the ldif file can be renetered into ldap.
Not sure what ldap you are talking about, but Sun/Netscape directory
server can take unbroken lines as well as broken lines.
It would be much more straightforward to have printldif output
unbroken lines.
Is there a way of doing this?
Thanks for your help,
Paul
