ldap_list

(PHP 3, PHP 4 , PHP 5)

ldap_list -- Single-level search

Description

resource ldap_list ( resource link_identifier, string base_dn, string filter [, array attributes [, int attrsonly [, int sizelimit [, int timelimit [, int deref]]]]] )

Returns a search result identifier or FALSE on error.

ldap_list() performs the search for a specified filter on the directory with the scope LDAP_SCOPE_ONELEVEL.

LDAP_SCOPE_ONELEVEL means that the search should only return information that is at the level immediately below the base_dn given in the call. (Equivalent to typing "ls" and getting a list of files and folders in the current working directory.)

This call takes 5 optional parameters. See ldap_search() notes.

Note: These optional parameters were added in 4.0.2: attrsonly, sizelimit, timelimit, deref.

Example 1. Produce a list of all organizational units of an organization

// $ds is a valid link identifier for a directory server

$basedn = "o=My Company, c=US";
$justthese = array("ou");

$sr=ldap_list($ds, $basedn, "ou=*", $justthese);

$info = ldap_get_entries($ds, $sr);

for ($i=0; $i<$info["count"]; $i++) {
    echo $info[$i]["ou"][0] ;
}

Note: From 4.0.5 on it's also possible to do parallel searches. See ldap_search() for details.
