Here is a minor change to encapsulate backend entry points. This is a portion of some work I did with the last Umich distribution to make backends dynamically loadable. If there is interest in the rest of that work, I can send it along as a separate set of diffs. I have support for Solaris, AIX 4, and HPUX working, along with an added entry point to allow the main slapd to obtain new schema definitions from the loaded backend. I also have a filesystem backend, along with a few other toys that are dynamically loaded. These diffs are against the OpenLDAP 1.2 release. -- Howard
