Only in perl >= 5.8. Perl 5.6 and earlier won't support this syntax,
so I would advise against using this to implement and ldif() method
unless you are OK with breaking compatibility with older perls...
5.8.0 was released nearly 8 years ago. Anyone who is still using a
version of perl that old will not mind using an old version of
Net::LDAP IMO.
I disagree with this statement. ;) RHEL4, for example, ships with perl
5.8.5, and remains one of the most widely deployed Linux distributions
in the corporate environment.
I didn't hear the OP referring to 5.8.x as "old" but as anything prior to
5.8.0 as old. The 5.6.x line is officially unsupported[0] so I think
Christopher is correct.
Ah, okay, my mistake. I misread that as 5.8.x instead of 5.8.0. ;)
