Hi folks,
Just three comments on Net::LDAP::LDIF...
1) Using:
my $load_ldif = Net::LDAP::LDIF->new($LOAD_FILE, "w", lowercase => 0,
wrap => 0);
...
$entry->add("cellPhone" => "$phone_number"); # cellPhone with
upper-case "P"
...
$yahoo_load_ldif->write_entry($entry);
produces a line in the output file like:
cellphone: ... # cellphone with lower-case "p"
so either the "lowercase" arg to "new" isn't working correctly, or I'm
somehow using it incorrectly?
Further, to be honest I'm not sure whether either of these should be
considered bugs, but they might be worth handling:
2) When creating a new LDIF file with "w", no blank line is added after
the final LDIF entry. At least with some tools (Yahoo address book, for
example), having no final blank line causes the final LDIF entry to be
ignored upon loading. Adding a final blank line to the LDIF file seems
to fix this problem. Again, I haven't looked at the LDIF standard in
detail, so strictly speaking this might just be a Yahoo problem, not a
Net::LDAP::LDIF problem.
3) If Net::LDAP::LDIF is run on UNIX but opens a Windows-created LDIF
file (\r\n instead of just \n line endings), read_entry doesn't properly
read in the separate entries.
For the rest, great stuff, thanks!
Cheers,
David Wood
