Async programming using Net::LDAP

[Chris F. <cf...@vi...>]

I must admit that I'm stymied.  I'm working with POE and Net::LDAP to
build a proxy agent but have been unable to find a documented public
interface that lets me tie Net::LDAP to any kind of async event manager.
The best I seem to be able to do is create the Net::LDAP object with the
async flag true.  Then some time later do a synch on the object hopeing
that results are available. As might be expected the performance of this
sucks.  

On the list archive from last year I see $ldap->socket used to get
a socket handle that can be used in select. That method is still
there. but still undocumented.  The recommendation then is to use
a private method to retrieve the data.  Is that the best interface
that exists for

I guess that if no other solution surfaces I'll remodel this to fork a
process per client and do all actions synchronously.

Looking forward to any advice
