>ldap_get_entries() is not (yet) binary safe. But this might change in >future versions. [bug #8176] I have already done this but I just started to think that should it instead be a separate function? As it might have (a little) performance decrease when it uses ldap_get_value_len() instead of ldap_get_value(). Or should ldap_get_entries() just have an optional argument? IMO all the current functions that have a binary safe equivalents e.g. ldap_get_values() vs. ldap_get_values_len() should be changed to aliases of the binary safe ones. I did a little benchmarking but I didn't see any dramatic differences in speed. 0.00429 seconds was the average for both. --Jani
