Net::LDAP::Extra(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::LDAP::Extra(3)
NAME
Net::LDAP::Extra -- Load extra Net::LDAP methods
SYNOPSIS
use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(my_extn);
$ldap = Net::LDAP->new( ... );
$ldap->my_extn( ... );
DESCRIPTION
"Net::LDAP::Extra" allows extra methods to be added to Net::LDAP.
Normally such methods would be added by sub-classing Net::LDAP, but
this proves to get messy as different people write different additions
and others want to use multiple of these sub-classes. Users end up
having to create sub-classes of their own which inherit from all the
extension sub-classes just so they can get all the features.
"Net::LDAP::Extra" allows methods to be added directly to all Net::LDAP
objects. This can be done by creating a class "Net::LDAP::Extra::name"
which exports functions. A "use Net::LDAP::Extra qw(name)" will then
make these functions avaliable as a methods on all "Net::LDAP" objects.
Care should be taken when choosing names for the functions to export to
ensure that they do not clash with others.
