Application tag )=

[Murugan K G <mur...@ya...>]

Hi
   Thanks for your previous response.  I have one more
problem while decoding the message returned from the
LDAP server.Is application [] tag is required while
decoding the  response as mentioned below.  Any help?


##### decoding part ###########
 $asn = Convert::ASN1->new;
$asn->prepare(q<
 	    [APPLICATION 24] SEQUENCE {
 	      responseName OCTET STRING,
 	      identity OCTET STRING
 	    }
          );
        $out = $asn->decode($response); # which is
        #returned  by send message 
 	print "The identity value is ".
        $out->{identity};
 	print "The response Value is".
 $out->{responseName};
 
 Regards
 K.Murugan

You do not need to decode this yourself. All you need are the ->response
and ->response_name methods on the object returned by $ldap->extension

Graham.

Hi LDAP guru,
    I am really happy about your reply. Before sending
this query, i already tried with the following 

$responsename
=Net::LDAP::Extension::response_name($mesg);
$response=Net::LDAP::Extension::response
($mesg);

But i got correct Response name but some ascii
charecters ( some smiling faces like you ) for
response while printing  the results. Is it reqiured
to convert these values to Perl data types once again
using ASN1 module. Any help since i am very new to
this stuff.

Again, Thanks  for your help .

Regards
K.Murugan

Need your help

[Murugan K G <mur...@ya...>]

Hi 
    I am getting the correct response name  while
doing the following operation. But  i am not getting
the proper response value.

How to decode the  message to get the proper response
value. I am following the step as discussed with
Graham.

$resname=Net::LDAP::Extension::response_name($extensionobj);
$respcount=Net::LDAP::Extension::response($extensionobj);

Any help ?

Regards
K.M

What is $extensionobj? Specifically, what class of object is it?

If it is what I think it is (an instance of Net::LDAP::Extension) then you
should be doing this kind of thing instead:

    $resname = $extensionobj->response_name();

Cheers,

Chris
