ldap_read -- Read an entry
Description
int ldap_read (int link_identifier, string base_dn, string filter [,
array attributes [, int attrsonly [, int sizelimit [, int timelimit [, int deref]]]]])
Returns a search result identifier or FALSE on error.
ldap_read() performs the search for a specified filter on the directory
with the scope LDAP_SCOPE_BASE. So it is equivalent to reading an entry from the directory.
An empty filter is not allowed. If you want to retrieve absolutely all information for
this entry, use a filter of "objectClass=*". If you know which entry types are used on the
directory server, you might use an appropriate filter such as "objectClass=inetOrgPerson".
This call takes 5 optional parameters. See
ldap_search() notes.
Note: These optional parameters were added in 4.0.2: attrsonly,
sizelimit, timelimit, deref.
From 4.0.5 on it's also possible to do parallel searches. See ldap_search() for details.
