題目: [Exim] LDAP patch
The attached patch makes some changes to LDAP lookup behaviour that I'd like
to propose.

(1) If you specify multiple attributes, they are returned as space-separated
strings, quoted if necessary (the same as NIS)

e.g. ldap:///o=base?attr1,attr2?sub?(uid=fred)

       used to give:    attr1=value one, attr2=value2
       now gives:       attr1="value one" attr2=value2


(2) If you don't specify any attributes in the search, you now get them in
the tagged format as well.

e.g. ldap:///o=base??sub?(uid=fred)

       used to give:    top, value one, value2
       now gives:       objectClass=top attr1="value one" attr2=value2


The reason for these changes is so that the results can be safely parsed -
in fact, the existing ${extract{key}{val}} function does this nicely[*].
This in turn allows a single LDAP query to be reused - one query can return
the destination delivery address, the quota, and so forth.

This is NOT a backwards compatible change, so there is a compile-time option
to reverse it (or you could add two new query types in addition to ldap and
ldapm). But I don't think the old behaviour was particularly useful as it
stood, as a field which contained ',' or '=' would make the result
unparseable.

In the common case where you explicitly ask for a single attribute in your
LDAP query, the behaviour is unchanged - i.e. the result is not quoted, and
if there are multiple values they are comma-separated.

The actual quoting code is stolen directly from nisplus.c so it ought to be
OK :-)

Regards,

Brian.

there are multiple values.
