Net::LDAP::Control::PersistentSearch provides an interface for the creation
and manipulation of objects that represent the PersistentSearch control as
described by draft-smith-psearch-ldap-03.txt.
In addition to the constructor arguments described in
the Net::LDAP::Control manpage the following are provided.
- changeTypes
-
An integer value determining the types of changes to look out for.
It is the bitwise OR of the following values (which represent the LDAP
operations indicated next to them):
- = add
- = delete
- = modify
- = modDN
If it is not given it defaults to 15 meaning all changes.
- changesOnly
-
A Boolean value telling whether the server may return
entries that match the search criteria.
If TRUE the server must not return any existing
entries that match the search criteria. Entries are only
returned when they are changed (added, modified, deleted, or
subject to a modifyDN operation)
- returnECs
-
If
TRUE, the server must return an Entry Change Notification
control with each entry returned as the result of changes.
See the Net::LDAP::Control::EntryChange manpage for details.
As with the Net::LDAP::Control manpage 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.
