Net::LDAP::Control::Assertion(3)
NAME
Net::LDAP::Control::Assertion - LDAPv3 Assertion Control
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP;
use Net::LDAP::Control::Assertion;
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( "ldap.mydomain.eg" );
$assert = Net::LDAP::Control::Assertion->new( assertion => '(sn=Jensen)' );
my $mesg = $ldap->modify( "cn=Barbara Jensen, o=University of Michigan, c=US",
replace => { givenName => "Babs" },
control => $assert );
DESCRIPTION
"Net::LDAP::Control::Assertion" provides an interface for the creation
and manipulation of objects that represent the "Assertion Control" as
described by RFC 4528.
The "Assertion Control" allows the client to specify a condition, an
assertion, that must be TRUE for the operation to be processed
normally. Otherwise, the operation is not performed. For instance,
the control can be used with the Modify operation to perform atomic
"test and set" and "test and clear" operations.
The control is appropriate for both LDAP interrogation and update
operations, including Add, Compare, Delete, Modify, ModifyDN (rename),
and Search.
CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
In addition to the constructor arguments described in
Net::LDAP::Control the following are provided.
assertion => FILTER
A filter specifying the assertion that must evaluate to TRUE in
order to make the operation process normally.
METHODS
As with Net::LDAP::Control each constructor argument described above is
also available as a method on the object which will return the current
value for the attribute if called without an argument, and set a new
value for the attribute if called with an argument.
