Full_Name: Pierre Belanger Version: 2.0-alpha3 OS: Solaris/Linux URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/ Submission from: (NULL) (206.167.75.236) Hi, I've been searching in OpenLDAP, UMich and Netscape' SDK for a real async safe ldap_simple_bind . So far, no luck. In OpenLDAP, there's a few #ifdef notyet around the code for supporting async ldap_simple_bind . My question is quite simple, is there someone working on this issue? If not, can someone teach me a little bit of what must be done and I would be glad to contribute a few nights (weeks) to get this moving and provide the code after, ... if I get it to work :-/ Besides the problem I have with ldap_simple_bind (async), does ldap_search (async) work fine? Best regards, Pierre B.

That is, the client call doesn't wait for the server response to be returned. Implementing other forms of async would be enhancement. I suggest starting a discussion on the devel mailing list. Providing a clear and consise description of how you'd like the API to behave would be good place to start. >My question is quite simple, is there someone working on >this issue?

This is best done by initiating & partipating in devel list discussions. You must be subscribed to post. http://www.openldap.org/lists/ >Besides the problem I have with ldap_simple_bind (async), >does ldap_search (async) work fine? They both "work fine" if they are used in the manner in which they were designed to be used in. Kurt
