.SH DESCRIPTION
These routines support the use of LDAP URLs (Uniform Resource Locators)
as detailed in RFC 2255.  LDAP URLs look like this:
.nf

  \fBldap://\fP\fIhostport\fP\fB/\fP\fIdn\fP[\fB?\fP\fIattrs\fP[\fB?\fP\fIscope\fP[\fB?\fP\fIfilter\fP[\fB?\fP\fIexts\fP]]]]

where:
  \fIhostport\fP is a host name with an optional ":portnumber"
  \fIdn\fP is the search base
  \fIattrs\fP is a comma separated list of attributes to request
  \fIscope\fP is one of these three strings:
    base one sub (default=base)
  \fIfilter\fP is filter
  \fIexts\fP are recognized set of LDAP and/or API extensions.

Example:
  ldap://ldap.example.net/dc=example,dc=net?cn,sn?sub?(cn=*)

.fi
.LP
URLs that are wrapped in angle-brackets and/or preceded by "URL:" are also
tolerated.  Alternative schemes such as ldaps:// and ldapi:// may be
parsed using the below routines as well.
.LP
.B ldap_is_ldap_url()
returns a non-zero value if \fIurl\fP looks like an LDAP URL (as
opposed to some other kind of URL).  It can be used as a quick check
for an LDAP URL; the
.B ldap_url_parse()
routine should be used if a more thorough check is needed.
.LP
.B ldap_url_parse()
breaks down an LDAP URL passed in \fIurl\fP into its component pieces.
If successful, zero is returned, an LDAP URL description is
allocated, filled in, and \fIludpp\fP is set to point to it.  If an
error occurs, a non-zero URL error code is returned.
.LP
.B ldap_free_urldesc()
should be called to free an LDAP URL description that was obtained from
a call to
.B ldap_url_parse().
.LP
.B ldap_url_search()
initiates an asynchronous LDAP search based on the contents of the
\fIurl\fP string.  This routine acts just like
.BR ldap_search (3)
except that many search parameters are pulled out of the URL.
.LP
.B ldap_url_search_s()
performs a synchronous LDAP search based on the contents of the
\fIurl\fP string.  This routine acts just like
.BR ldap_search_s (3)
except that many search parameters are pulled out of the URL.
.LP
.B ldap_url_search_st()
performs a synchronous LDAP URL search with a specified \fItimeout\fP.
This routine acts just like
.BR ldap_search_st (3)
except that many search parameters are pulled out of the URL.
