Re: Support for the RFC 2696 paged results LDAP extension

The best thing to do to get it in is to write a patch :-) Although the ldap extension is listed as being maintained, I don't think Stig Venaas has had much time for it in a while. The next best thing to writing a patch is showing some C code that shows how to do it--maybe someone will take it on. --Wez. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Palmer" <usenet@in-addr.com> To: <internals@lists.php.net> Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 12:49 AM Subject: [PHP-DEV] Support for the RFC 2696 paged results LDAP extension > Hi, > > I am wondering if there is any plan to support RFC 2696 "LDAP Control > Extension for Simple Paged Results Manipulation". > > LDAP has a problem that most/all servers aren't designed to handle large > result sets.
