void deleteExt ( AUTF8String baseDn )

Kicks off an asynchronous delete request. The "ext" stands for "extensions", and is intended to convey that this method will eventually support the extensions described in the draft-ietf-ldapext-ldap-c-api-04.txt Internet Draft.

void init ( nsILDAPConnection connection , nsILDAPMessageListener messageListener , nsISupports closure )

Initializes this operation. Must be called prior to initiating any actual operations. Note that by default, the messageListener callbacks happen on the LDAP connection thread.

messageListener: interface used to call back the results.

closure: private parameter (anything caller desires)

void modifyExt ( AUTF8String baseDn , nsIArray mods )

Kicks off an asynchronous modify request. The "ext" stands for "extensions", and is intended to convey that this method will eventually support the extensions described in the draft-ietf-ldapext-ldap-c-api-04.txt Internet Draft.

void rename ( AUTF8String baseDn , AUTF8String newRDn , AUTF8String newParent , PRBool deleteOldRDn )

Kicks off an asynchronous rename request.

XXX doesn't currently handle LDAPControl params

Arguments:

baseDn: Base DN to rename

newRDn: New relative DN

newParent: DN of the new parent under which to move the entry

deleteOldRDn: Indicates whether to remove the old relative DN as a value in the entry or not

void searchExt ( AUTF8String baseDn , PRInt32 scope , AUTF8String filter , PRUint32 attrCount , arrayof char* attributes , PRIntervalTime timeOut , PRInt32 sizeLimit )

Kicks off an asynchronous search request. The "ext" stands for "extensions", and is intended to convey that this method will eventually support the extensions described in the draft-ietf-ldapext-ldap-c-api-04.txt Internet Draft.

Arguments:

baseDn: Base DN to search

scope: One of SCOPE_{BASE,ONELEVEL,SUBTREE}

filter: Search filter

attrCount: Number of attributes we request (0 for all)

attributes: Array of strings, holding the attrs we need

timeOut: How long to wait

sizeLimit: Maximum number of entries to return.

void simpleBind ( AUTF8String passwd )

Asynchronously authenticate to the LDAP server.
