have you got the datamapper module setup someplace? I've never used datamapper nor active record. But, they seem like a good idea....

the patch

I see if I can get the trunk to work with my application.

Hi Kristian,

Where did you upload the patch? I didn't see anything come by.

As far as error handling the current way is to check the result, i.e. ldap.get_operation_result, after each operation. It is not very OO but it was designed this way. In 'net-ldap 2' we'll be using exceptions.

I would appreciate any testing you can do with the "trunk" version with your software. Let me know if I can help out.

Regards,

- Emiel

hello Emiel,

I uploaded one patch.

the next thing I had in mind was the unaccessible error messages from the server. and I saw in
ldap.rb#add
that you (or someone else) started to pass the result structure into ldap class. this I would do for all possible methods and either create helper methods for accessing the various attributes or a helper class.

then I saw that the svn version does not run with my application. so I will have a look if I can find the problem.

apropos net-ldap2. yes i can comment on your ideas but I am not a ldap person and a lot of things with ldap internals are quite new to me.

anyways, let me know if I shall do the result issue on all methods.

with regards
Kristian

PS I have to be careful to stay within my time constraints ;-)

Hello Kristian,

Very happy to hear you are using Ruby net-ldap. Datamapper looks like an interesting project.

I've been trying to prepare a 0.5 release but don't have much time for it. There are indeed many patches applied already. If you can register your patches on RubyForge that would be great. We really need to release a 0.5 :)

FYI: I'm working on say "net-ldap 2" in my spare time. Nothing public yet but if you are interested I would be happy to share my ideas.

Regards,

- Emiel

hello since I am working on dm-ldap-adapter (for datamapper.org) where I use that library I would like to see a new release. there are quite some patches applied in the subversion repository and there a few issues I could help on:

* open connections have to be closed in case of an error/exceptions

* propagate the error message from the server to client

I can help out more if you tell me how ? shall submit the patches for the above two points ?

with regards Kristian
