Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78389&edit=1 ID: 78389 User updated by: call dot user dot func at gmail dot com Reported by: call dot user dot func at gmail dot com Summary: ldap_control_paged_result deprecated - A bug or feature? Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: LDAP related Operating System: Windows 10 PHP Version: 7.4.0beta2 Assigned To: mcmic Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thanks. Ive already integrated this behaviour with ldap_search and the new controls. Can be closed. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-13 07:26:39] mcmic@php.net The comment above is correct. You can look at example 5 on this page to have an example of the new syntax: https://www.php.net/manual/en/ldap.examples-controls.php ldap_control_paged_result was setting controls for all future searches with no way of going back to no paging. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-09 04:53:36] requinix@php.net This is intentional, and will be covered by the 7.4 changelog and migration guide. https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/d93ce1795979e31255717fd770a2f0e901c06081 I'm no LDAP expert but according to the commit message, those functions "have serious limitations and may confuse users". Pagination is apparently covered by ldap_search() and its $serverctrls parameter. https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-search.php https://www.php.net/manual/en/ldap.controls.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-09 04:45:09] call dot user dot func at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Starting with PHP 7.4 the function "ldap_control_paged_result" and "ldap_control_paged_result_response" is deprecated. I have read the deprecations RFC from 7.4 and even 7.3 and i cannot find that should be deprecated. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_7_4 https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_7_3 If this is intended, please provide us with some information how we should work without that 2 functions to archive the same result. Thank you. Test script: --------------- <?php // make sure you have extension=ldap enabled in php.ini ldap_control_paged_result(null, 0); ldap_control_paged_result_response(null, null); Expected result: ---------------- Funtions should not be deprecated Actual result: -------------- They are deprecated ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78389&edit=1
