Lib/
* ldap.schema.models: More fault-tolerant parsing of SYNTAX in
AttributeTypeDescription

if available in OpenLDAP header
* new exception class ldap.PROXIED_AUTHORIZATION_DENIED

Released 2.0.11 2005-11-07
Changes since 2.0.10:
Lib/
* Class ldap.ldapobject.LDAPObject:
Each method returns a result now
* Class ldap.ldapobject.ReconnectLDAPObject:
Some methods called the wrong methods of LDAPObject. Fixed.
* Added new class ldap.async.Dict
* Slightly cleaned up ldap.schema.subentry.attribute_types()
* New sub-module ldap.resiter which simply provides a mix-in
class for ldap.ldapobject.LDAPObject with a generator method
allresults().
Obviously this only works with Python 2.3+. And
it's still experimental.
changes:
* Switched back to old implementation of
ldap.schema.tokenizer.split_tokens() since the new one
had a bug which deletes the spaces from DESC
* ldap.INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS is now ignored in
ldap.ldapobject.LDAPObject.search_subschemasubentry_s()
compilation against newer OpenLDAP, as shown in bulk builds results.
Changes since 2.0.1:
Modules:
* Fixed detecting appropriate OpenLDAP libs version for
determining whether ldap_whoami_s() is available or not.
This fixes build problems with OpenLDAP libs 2.1.0 up
to 2.1.12.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0:
dsml:
* Fixed wrong exception message format string
ldap.schema.models:
* Fixed Entry.__delitem__() to delete really everything
when deleting an attribute dictionary item.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre21:
ldif:
* Empty records are simply ignored in ldif.LDIFWriter.unparse()
Modules/:
* New method result2() returns 3-tuple containing the msgid
of the outstanding operation.
ldap.ldapobject:
* New _ldap wrapper method LDAPObject.result2() (see above)
which is now used by LDAPObject.result().
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre20:
setup.py:
* runtime_library_dirs is set
Modules/:
* (Hopefully) fixed building with OpenLDAP 2.2 libs in errors.c
* Removed meaningless repr() function from LDAPObject.c
* Removed setting LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION in l_ldap_sasl_bind_s()
* Modified string handling via berval instead of *char
in l_ldap_compare_ext() makes it possible to compare attribute
values with null chars.
* Wrapped ldap_sasl_bind() for simple binds instead of ldap_bind()
since 1. the latter is marked deprecated and 2. ldap_sasl_bind()
allows password credentials with null chars.
* Removed unused sources linkedlist.c and linkedlist.h
* Function l_ldap_whoami_s() only added if built against
OpenLDAP 2.1.x+ libs (should preserve compability with 2.0 libs)
ldap.ldapobject:
* LDAPObject.bind() only allows simple binds since Kerberos V4
binds of LDAPv2 are not supported anymore. An assert statement
was added to make the coder aware of that.
* Renamed former LDAPObject.sasl_bind_s() to
LDAPObject.sasl_interactive_bind_s() since it wraps OpenLDAP's
ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s()
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre19:
Modules/:
* Removed doc strings from functions.c
* Removed probably unused wrapper function l_ldap_dn2ufn() since
ldap_dn2ufn() is deprecated in OpenLDAP 2.1+
* Removed wrapper function l_ldap_is_ldap_url().
* Removed macro add_int_r() from constants.c since it caused
incompability issues with OpenLDAP 2.2 libs
(Warning: all result types are Integers now! Use the constants!)
* New wrapper function l_ldap_whoami_s()
ldap.ldapobject:
* New wrapper method LDAPObject.whoami_s()
ldap.functions:
* Removed is_ldap_url(). The more general function
ldapurl.isLDAPUrl() should be used instead.
ldap.sasl:
* Added class cram_md5 (for SASL mech CRAM-MD5)
ldap.async:
* Use constants for search result types (see note about
add_int_r() above).
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre18:
Modules/:
* LDAPObject.c:
Most deprecated functions of OpenLDAP C API are not used anymore.
* functions.c:
Removed unused default_ldap_port().
* constants.c:
Removed unused or silly constants
AUTH_KRBV4, AUTH_KRBV41, AUTH_KRBV42, URL_ERR_BADSCOPE, URL_ERR_MEM
* errors.c:
Fixed building with OpenLDAP 2.2.x
(errors caused by negative error constants in ldap.h)
ldap.ldapobject.LDAPObject:
* Removed unused wrapper methods uncache_entry(), uncache_request(),
url_search(), url_search_st() and url_search_s()
* New wrapper methods for all the _ext() methods in _ldap.LDAPObject.
ldap.modlist:
* Some performance optimizations and simplifications
in function modifyModlist()
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre17:
ldap.ldapobject:
* Fixed missing ldap._ldap_function_call() in
ReconnectLDAPObject.reconnect()
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre16:
ldap.functions:
* Fixed ImportError when running python -O
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since 2.0.0pre15:
Modules/:
* Removed definition of unused constant RES_EXTENDED_PARTIAL since
the corresponding symbol LDAP_RES_EXTENDED_PARTIAL seems to not
be available in OpenLDAP-HEAD (pre 2.2) anymore.
All in Lib/:
* Fixed some subtle bugs/oddities mentioned by pychecker.
dsml:
* Renamed DSMLWriter._f to DSMLWriter._output_file
* Added wrapper method DSMLWriter.unparse() which simply
calls DSMLWriter.writeRecord()
ldap.ldapobject:
* Simplified LDAPObject.search_subschemasubentry_s()
ldap.functions:
* Moved ldap._ldap_function_call() into ldap.functions.
* apply() is not used anymore since it seems deprecated
ldap.async:
* Added class DSMLWriter
ldap.schema:
* Removed unused key-word argument strict from
ldap.schema.subentry.SubSchema.attribute_types()
* Fixed backward compability issue (for Python prior to 2.2) in
ldap.schema.subentry.SubSchema.listall()
slightly reworked by myself. David will now maintain it.
The 2.x series support OpenLDAP 2.x. From then an incomplete list of
changes is available in the CHANGES file of the distfile.
