ldap_first_entry -- Return first result id

Description

Returns the result entry identifier for the first entry on success and FALSE on error.

Entries in the LDAP result are read sequentially using the ldap_first_entry() and ldap_next_entry() functions. ldap_first_entry() returns the entry identifier for first entry in the result. This entry identifier is then supplied to ldap_next_entry() routine to get successive entries from the result.

Here's a nice way to user ldap_first_entry,ldap_next_entry.

$res = ldap_search($ldapc,$searchroot,$filter,$attributes);
for ($entryID=ldap_first_entry($ldapc,$res);
           $entryID!=false;
           $entryID=ldap_next_entry($ldapc,$entryID))
{
// Do stuff with the $entryID.
$values = ldap_get_values($ldapc,$entryID,'uid');
}
