LDAP_FRIENDLY(3LDAP)					  LDAP_FRIENDLY(3LDAP)

NAME
       ldap_friendly,	ldap_friendly_name,   ldap_free_friendlymap   -	  LDAP
       attribute remapping functions

SYNOPSIS
       cc[ flag... ] file... -lldap[ library... ]
       #include <lber.h>
       #include <ldap.h>

       char *ldap_friendly_name(char *filename, char *name,
	    FriendlyMap **map);

       void ldap_free_friendlymap(FriendlyMap **map);

DESCRIPTION
       This function is used to map one set of strings to another.  Typically,
       this  is	 done  for  country  names, to map from the two-letter country
       codes to longer more readable names.  The mechanism is  general	enough
       to be used with other things, though.

       filename	 is  the  name of a file containing the unfriendly to friendly
       mapping, name is the unfriendly name to map to a friendly name, and map
       is a result-parameter that should be set to NULL on the first call.  It
       is then used to hold the mapping in core so that the file need  not  be
       read on subsequent calls.

       For example:

		 FriendlyMap *map = NULL;
		 printf( "unfriendly %s => friendly %s\n", name,
		     ldap_friendly_name( "ETCDIR/ldapfriendly", name, &map ) );

       The   mapping   file   should  contain  lines  like  this:  unfriendly‐
       name\tfriendlyname.  Lines that begin with a '#' character are comments
       and are ignored.

       The  ldap_free_friendlymap()  call is used to free structures allocated
       by ldap_friendly_name() when no more calls to ldap_friendly_name()  are
       to be made.

ERRORS
       NULL  is	 returned by ldap_friendly_name() if there is an error opening
       filename, or if the file has a bad format, or if the map	 parameter  is
       NULL.

FILES
       ETCDIR/ldapfriendly.conf
