While this software is being released to the OpenLDAP +community, it is the authors' intention that support continue (and +be added) for other client libraries as well. As time goes on, it +is expected that code will converge rather than diverge. + +Support is provided for University of Michigan LDAP version 3.3, +OpenLDAP, and Netscape. The default configuration supports +OpenLDAP 1.2.4 and above. + +OpenLDAP 2.x is supported, but there is not yet any support for +using SASL or TLS. There may be interface changes in the LDAP API +which the author is unaware of (a leak was recently fixed for the +return values of ldap_first/next_attribute() calls). + +It uses GNU autoconf. It builds and installs without requiring +parallel directories, but it does require that Tcl and Extended Tcl +are installed in the directory pointed to by --prefix (/usr/local +by default). + +For further info, try "./configure --help". + +For example, I run: + + ./configure --prefix=/opt/neotcl --enable-shared \ + --with-ldap=/usr/local/ldap + +Remember that --prefix must be the same prefix used when building +and installint Tcl. + +Netscape configuration has not been well tested, and you may have to +play with the resulting Makefile to get it to work. In particular, +you will probably need to modify the LDAP_LIBFLAGS. However, the +C code itself is reasonably well tested with Netscape. + +This module will install a regular shell (ldaptclsh) a windowing +shell (ldapwish) a library, a pkgIndex.tcl, and a manpage (ldap.n). + +If your Tcl installation has been configured with --enable-shared, +then you must also use --enable-shared here. + +Shared libraries and Tcl packages. + +If Tcl is built with --enable-shared, AND OpenLDAP (or another version +for that matter) has been build to create -llber and -lldap as shared +libraries, AND you build ldaptcl with --enable-shared, it should be +possible to run a plain Tcl interpreter (eg. tclsh8.0) and do + + package require Ldaptcl + +which will install the "ldap" command into the interpreter. + +You may need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable appropriately, +or use -R or -W,-rpath ld command options to resolve the search for ldap +and lber libraries. + +This package was test built on a Alpha OSF4.0e with the native C +compiler. + +Please email comments or bug fixes to openldap-devel@OpenLDAP.org, +or to kunkee@OpenLDAP.org. I would also like to know if you are +using this interface, so I invite you to drop me an email if you do. -- cgit v1.2.3
