It would really help Samba if ITS#8671 "Declare ldap_init_fd() in ldap.h to help external consumers" would make a release too.
It is not a code change, only a documentation update but it would have allowed us to get distributions changed with regards to ldap_init_fd availability.
Hi Alexander,
The "ldap.h" file is specifically for RFC defined interfaces. I discussed this with Howard, and we thought that the best way to address this issue would be to rename "ldap_pvt.h" to "openldap.h", to indicate that the methods found in it are openldap specific. This should resolve the issue with packagers not packaging the file as well. What do you think?
