OK, after having looked around a bit I have found that when going from SA
3.1.7 to 3.2 there as been included the marked snippet in the ldap
lookups.
my $port = $uri->port;
my $base = $uri->dn;
my @attr = $uri->attributes;
my $scope = $uri->scope;
my $filter = $uri->filter;
my $schema = $uri->schema;
<<<<<<<<<<<<<------
my %extn = $uri->extensions; # unused
Now for some reason perl uri does not include schema as part of it's
instructions for using uri::ldap
=head1 NAME
URI::ldap - LDAP Uniform Resource Locators
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use URI;
$uri = URI->new("ldap:$uri_string");
$dn = $uri->dn;
$filter = $uri->filter;
@attr = $uri->attributes;
$scope = $uri->scope;
%extn = $uri->extensions;
$uri = URI->new("ldap:"); # start empty
$uri->host("ldap.itd.umich.edu");
$uri->dn("o=University of Michigan,c=US");
$uri->attributes(qw(postalAddress));
$uri->scope('sub');
$uri->filter('(cn=Babs Jensen)');
print $uri->as_string,"\n";
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Notice that schema is not mentioned.
I looked and found that yes schema is used in perl net ldap but I would
assume if your going to use uri::ldap to parse the uri it needs to follow
uri::ldaps requirements.
I could be wrong, but it seems that the change made from 3.1 to 3.2 has
been implemented wrong.
Is Net::LDAP::Schema what should be used for getting the schema instead?
Thanks
