use tmpmemctx for bsi_attrs (should be used more for temporaries)
fix ITS#3480: allow to fetch all attrs or provide hints
fixed access check to entry for rename
TODO: fetch entries for access checking in selected code portions (e.g. rename)
for further mucking with data. This can be of use in ill situations
where not all the required massaging can be done on data with SQL
by means of stored procedures, but overlays are called too early
and cannot be used to make data non LDAP compliant.
- only support for bidirectional DN mucking is provided right now
- support for other values mucking is planned
- write is not completely tested yet
- the API could change quite often; don't rely too much on it
other cleanup has been added.
- now all write operations appear to work correctly with PostgeSQL 7.0
- all write operations have been made transactional (atomic writes to
entries are committed separately only in case of complete^1 success
while all other operations are rolled-back by default)
- more cleanup and handling of exceptional conditions
TODO:
- deen to check with different databases and more up to date versions
of both unixODBC and PostgreSQL.
^1: attribute add/modify/delete operations silently succeed if the
appropriate add/delete proc does not exist for each attribute;
this may be correct to hide undesired/unimplemented correspondence
between LDAP and SQL databases; however, a more appropriate
LDAP behavior would be a failure with LDAP_UNAVAILABLE if a
single write operation cannot be executed for such reason
- re-style according to the style giudelines for better readability
- updated to recent frontend/backend API changes
- fixed a few quirks about normalization
- "optimized" a few memory allocation/string handling functions
- fixed a few quirks about add/modify (still have to look ad modrdn)
todo:
- there is still something broken (at least with PostgreSQL and IBM db2,
the two RDBMS O have at hand) when adding
- move everything to struct bervals and try to save a few strlen
- try some LDAP/SQL syntax relation to use appropriate value bind if possible
- ...
