Details

From kburns@netscape.com (Kevin L. Burns): Second, I found a bug in Conn::search(). It seems that if I set $attrsonly to 1 I get a seg fault and a core dump (if you like I'll send you the core file, though it should be easy to reproduce). Doing the exact same operation with $attrsonly set to 0 works fine, so that's what I'll do for now.

This still doesn't work, but I can't get it to core dump. I'm not sure how we should handle this, I just haven't thought about. Two possible solutions: 1. We don't do anything, like today. Bad. 2. We give the attributes "empty" values (NULL string). Without a value, they won't show up in the hash array, which sort of defeats the purpose. Any suggestions?
I can't get this to core dump. It seems to work for me - the keys all print out for me if I do print join(',', keys($%entry)). If this is touchy on other systems, why not just set a variable in the connection object noting that the query was for attributes-only. Then, inside of nextEntry(), we can set the attribute equal to [] or undef instead of calling ldap_get_values_len. Maybe I'm missing the bug though - a code snippet would help.

I can't get it to core dump either, closing bug. Please reopen if it's still there, I just tested with the v1.3 development branch.
