HI! Again it's time to think about the minimum required version of OpenLDAP libs to be used for building upcoming python-ldap 2.4.0. I'd vote for strictly requiring a fairly recent version in the OpenLDAP 2.4.x release series. I know that this rules out using packages provided in RHEL 5 or similar old enterprise Linux distros.
I'm asking because support for the assertion control was fixed/extended in HEAD but it relies on OpenLDAP 2.4.11+. Currently it's hidden behind a #ifdef LIBLDAP_HAS_ASSERTION_CONTROL_FUNC but I generally don't like to have features which are there or not there depending on the build. The above is only one example. I could think of more features to be added. And I think the feature set of python-ldap 2.4.0 should be as independent from the build options as possible. Ciao, Michael. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What You Don't Know About Data Connectivity CAN Hurt You This paper provides an overview of data connectivity, details its effect on application quality, and explores various alternative solutions. http://p.sf.net/sfu/progress-d2d _______________________________________________ Python-LDAP-dev mailing list Python-LDAP-dev@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/python-ldap-dev
