Hi Team,

We are working on migration of nsldap C sdk to OpenLDAP C sdk for our application client code.

As part of this activity, from our application, we are sending one search query using search API (Ex: ldap_search_ext_s) to one of LDAP servers with a filter: smVariableName=dzORGS== In this search filter, escape character () is added for equals to (=) symbols.

Hello,

OpenLDAP filter escaping complies with RFC 4515. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4515
