So don't hard-code it then.
Just modify the update command the library provides so that it does what you need it to do.
Manually poking at the data structure that a library uses internally is a BAD idea; it breaks the whole point of using object-oriented methods.
So. You want to change how you do an update. So take this --
$result = $ldap->add( 'cn=Barbara Jensen, o=University of Michigan, c=US', attr => [ 'cn' => ['Barbara Jensen', 'Barbs Jensen'], 'sn' => 'Jensen', 'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'objectclass' => ['top', 'person', 'organizationalPerson', 'inetOrgPerson' ], ] );
$result->code && warn "failed to add entry: ", $result->error ;
And edit the fields you need to have added.
$result = $ldap->add(
'cn' => ['George Kaplan', 'Roger Thornhill'],
'mail' => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
);
$result->code && warn "failed to add entry: ", $result-error;$result = $ldap->add( 'cn' => ["$name", "$nick"], 'mail' => "$mail" ); $result->code && warn "failed to add $name/$mail: ", $result-error;
In what way isn't this working for you?
If you try to poke at the data structure Net::LDAP is using without going through the $ldap->add() method provided, you're probably going to regret it in the long run, when -- as inevitably happens -- some random update changes how things are stored but not the API and your code that depended on the old storage mechanism falls apart with the new one. If on the other hand you just use the normal API, you should be safe.
