str2filter

[June Sup Lee <june@ISI.EDU>]

Hi,

I used str2filter function to create the Filter structure and
found out that str2filter crashes in case of substring filter.

    250         while ( *val ) {
    251                 if ( (nextstar = ldap_pvt_find_wildcard( val )) != NULL
        )
    252                         *nextstar++ = '\0';
    253 
    254                 ldap_pvt_filter_value_unescape( val );
    255 
    256                 if ( gotstar == 0 ) {
    257                         f->f_sub_initial = ber_bvstrdup( val );
    258 
    259                 } else if ( nextstar == NULL ) {
    260                         f->f_sub_final = ber_bvstrdup( val );
    261 
    262                 } else {
    263                         charray_add( (char ***) &f->f_sub_any, (char *)
        ber_bvstrdup( val ) );
    264                 }
    265 
    266                 gotstar = 1;
    267                 val = nextstar;
    268         }

I patched it with
    250         while ( val && *val ) {

but it also causes crashing when I call filter_free().
I assume that the filter structure created by str2filter() is
different from the filter structure created by get_filter().

Don't you support the str2filter function anymore?
If not, is there any other libraries I can use for creating
the Filter structure out of filter string?

Thanks.
