LDAP
VA Smalltalk 9.1 introduces support for the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), a client-server application protocol for accessing and maintaining distributed directory information services usually organized in a tree structure.
This section guides you through a representative set of examples which illustrate the capabilities of the LDAP protocol. The protocol and its motivations are described in Wikipedia Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.
VAST Platform 14.0.0 adds paged LDAP search capability.
After reading this section, you will be able to
o Establish a local LDAP server and populate it with data.
o Use the client-side Smalltalk examples (EsLdapExamples) to access and manipulate the data using LDAP protocols.
