From: tekion on 13 Jul 2010 21:15 Hi, I know perl Net::LDAP could do a recursive search call to LDAP. What I am running into with Python LDAP on the search call is that I would l have to wait for the search to complete to get the result. Where as with Perl recursive search call, I would get the result (not the completed result) back while the search is still running. Does any know if we have something like this in Python LDAP module? Thanks.

Personally I'd associate that with recursively processing LDAP tree structure. > What I am running into with Python LDAP on the search call is that I would > l have to wait for the search to complete to get the result.

In case you're using http://www.python-ldap.org you're probably looking for the asynchronous search methods: http://www.python-ldap.org/doc/html/ldap.html#ldap.LDAPObject.search See general note: http://www.python-ldap.org/doc/html/ldap.html#sending-ldap-requests Ciao, Michael. |
