Contents of README:Copyright (c) 1998-1999 NeoSoft, Inc. For licensing information, see the file neoXldap.c and/or the COPYRIGHT file contained in the directory you found this file. This directory contains an extension to Tcl to interface with an LDAP server. 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. |
