FYI: python-ldap 2.3 will require OpenLDAP 2.3 libs

[<mi...@st...>]

HI!

Please take note that in the upcoming new release 2.3 of python-ldap
only OpenLDAP libs 2.3 or newer will be officially supported. (Using
version 2.3 does not mean that version numbers of both packages will be
kept in line forever.)

I won't test python-ldap with older OpenLDAP libs anymore. OpenLDAP 2.2
is considered historic by OpenLDAP developers for quite some time now.

Ciao, Michael.

Preparing python-ldap 2.3

[<mi...@st...>]

HI!

Thanks to David we made good progress getting current HEAD code updated
to reflect changes in OpenLDAP's C SDK.

I'd like to release 2.3 soon since there are some important improvements
in HEAD but not yet released. Therefore testing of HEAD is needed!

Please provide feedback ideally on the mailing list. Thanks.

Ciao, Michael.

Current CHANGES:

----------------------------------------------------------------
Released 2.3.0 2007-03-xx

Changes since 2.2.1:

* OpenLDAP 2.3+ required now to build.
* Added support for Cancel operation ext. op. if supported
in OpenLDAP API of the libs used for the build.

Modules/
* Removed deprecated code for setting options by name
* Added l_ldap_cancel()
* Some modifications related to PEP 353 for
  Python 2.5 on 64-bit platforms (see SF#1467529)
* Added new function l_ldap_str2dn(), removed functions
  l_ldap_explode_dn() and l_ldap_explode_rdn() (see SF#1657848)

Lib/
* Added method ldapobject.LDAPObject.cancel()
* ldap.schema.subentry.urlfetch() now can do non-anonymous
  simple bind if the LDAP URL provided contains extensions
  'bindname' and 'X-BINDPW'. (see SF#1589206)
* ldap.filter.escape_filter_chars() has new a key-word argument
  escape_mode now which defines which chars to be escaped
  (see SF#1193271).
* Various important fixes to ldapobject.ReconnectLDAPObject
* Moved all DN-related functions to sub-module ldap.dn,
  import them in ldap.functions for backward compability
* ldap.dn.explode_dn() and ldap.dn.explode_rdn() use the new
  wrapper function ldap.dn.str2dn() (related to SF#1657848)
* changetype issue partially fixed (see SF#1683746)

I get this error

/Modules/functions.o
Modules/functions.c:143: error: 'l_ldap_dn2str' undeclared here (not in a
function)

regarding

# grep -ir dn2str .
....
./Lib/ldap/dn.py:def dn2str(dn):
./Modules/functions.c:    { "dn2str",
(PyCFunction)l_ldap_dn2str,        METH_VARARGS },

I removed the dn2str definition from ./Modules/functions.c and now it works
