DESCRIPTION
"Net::LDAP::Control::PostRead" provides an interface for the creation
and manipulation of objects that represent the "Post-Read Controls" as
described by RFC 4527.
In modification operations, the "Post-Read request control" indicates
to the server that a copy of the modified entry after the update is to
be returned. After the successful completion of the operation, the
accompanying "Post-Read response control" allows one to retrieve the
updated value from the server's response.
One use case of this control may be to obtain values of operational
attributes, such as the "entryUUID" and "modifyTimestamp" attributes,
updated by the server as part of the update operation.
CONSTRUCTOR ARGUMENTS
In addition to the constructor arguments described in
Net::LDAP::Control the following are provided.
attrs => [ ATTR, ... ]
A list of attributes to be returned in the entry returned in the
response control.
If absent, all attributes are returned.
Operational attributes may be included in the list by explicitly
asking for them or by using special "+" feature (provided the
server supports this feature).
METHODS
As with Net::LDAP::Control each constructor argument described above is
also available as a method on the object which will return the current
value for the attribute if called without an argument, and set a new
value for the attribute if called with an argument.
In addition to these methods, the control also supports the following
method:
entry ()
Returns the entry from the response control in the response message
to the LDAP request that contained the request control.
The result is either a Net::LDAP::Entry object or undefined.
