ldap_next

Description

resource ldap_next_entry ( resource link_identifier, resource result_entry_identifier )

Returns entry identifier for the next entry in the result whose entries are being read starting with ldap_first_entry(). If there are no more entries in the result then it returns FALSE.

ldap_next_entry() function is used to retrieve the entries stored in the result. Successive calls to the ldap_next_entry() return entries one by one till there are no more entries. The first call to ldap_next_entry() is made after the call to ldap_first_entry() with the result_entry_identifier as returned from the ldap_first_entry().

The code listed below (posted by jeff) to print all attributes with their values is wrong. It keeps trying to index the $entry variable, which is a resource identifier, not an array. All the required information is in the return value of ldap_get_attributes, $attrs.

So:



$entry = ldap_next_entry($conn,$first_entry);

$attrs = ldap_get_attributes($conn,$entry);

for ($i=0; $i < $attrs["count"]; $i++) {

   $attr_name = $attrs[$i];

   for ($j=0; $j < $attrs[$attr_name]["count"]; $j++) {

     echo "$attr_name: ".$attrs["$attr_name"][$j]."\n";

   }

}

dahoo,



Your code to list the attributes of an entry isn't as complete as it could be--just listing the $result["attr"][0] value won't handle multiple-valued attributes. Instead, you should have something like:



$entry = ldap_next_entry($conn,$first_entry);

$attrs = ldap_get_attributes($conn,$entry);

for ($i=0; $i < $entry["count"]; $i++) {

   $attr_name = $entry[$i];

   for ($j=0; $j < $entry[$attr_name]["count"]; $j++) {

      echo "$attr_name: ".$entry["$attr_name"][$j]."\n";

   }

}



This enables you to get listings like:



dn: cn=admin,ou=Groups

cn: admin

objectClass: posixGroup

gidNumber: 500

memberUid: 604

memberUid: 605



(note the two values for "memberUid")



I hope this helps someone.

An example :



for($i=ldap_first_entr($connect,$result);

    $arr=ldap_get_attributes($connect,$i);

    $i=ldap_next_entry($connect,$i))

{

    foreach ($arr as $k => $v) 

             {

        $myrow[$k]=$arr[$k][0];

    }

}

A short example :



$qry = ldap_search( $cxion, $ldap_base, '(cn=seb*)' );



$entry = ldap_first_entry( $cxion, $qry );

while( $entry ){

 $dn = ldap_get_dn( $cxion, $entry );

 echo "<b>$dn</b><br>\n";

 $attrs = ldap_get_attributes( $cxion, $entry );

 for( $i=0; $i<$attrs['count']; $i++ ){

  echo "$attrs[$i]: ";

  for( $j=0; $j<$attrs[$attrs[$i]]['count']; $j++ )

   echo $attrs[$attrs[$i]][$j] . " ";

  echo "<br>\n";

 }

 echo "\<br>\n";

 $entry = ldap_next_entry( $cxion, $entry );

}



ldap_free_result( $qry );
