Re: [ldapext] distibuted procedures draft Section 3.3

I need to change that to "ChainedIntermediateResponse" or something. It's not good to use the name name as the IntermediateResponse defined in RFC 3771.

I prefer staying with the LDAPv3 model of returning one protocol message per search result entry/reference.

If batching milti-valued responses is seen as a good thing, I suggest a general mechanism be defined to do that (one that will work for chained response as a well as non-chained search and intermediate responses).

I'm not sure what others think.

Should we allow a client the facility to send back more than one searchresultentry/references by changing:

IntermediateResponse ::= SEQUENCE {

Response ::= CHOICE {

searchResEntry SearchResultEntry,

searchResRef SearchResultReference,

intermediateResponse IntermediateResponse

... },

controls [0] Controls COPTIONAL }

IntermediateResponse ::= SEQUENCE OF {

Response ::= CHOICE {

searchResEntry SearchResultEntry,

searchResRef SearchResultReference,

intermediateResponse IntermediateResponse

... },

controls [0] Controls COPTIONAL }

or should we rathar stay with the LDAP v3 model of having one protocol message for each serch result entry/reference.

I feel the former has advantages since it allows a protocol peer to send bac muliple as well as single serch result entries/references .

Comments ?
