ldap_first_attribute

Return first attribute

Description

string ldap_first_attribute ( resource $link_identifier , resource $result_entry_identifier )

Gets the first attribute in the given entry. Remaining attributes are retrieved by calling ldap_next_attribute successively.

Similar to reading entries, attributes are also read one by one from a particular entry.

Parameters

link_identifier

An LDAP link identifier, returned by ldap_connect.

result_entry_identifier

ber_identifier

ber_identifier is the identifier to internal memory location pointer. It is passed by reference. The same ber_identifier is passed to ldap_next_attribute , which modifies that pointer.

Note:

This parameter is no longer used as this is now handled automatically by PHP. For backwards compatibility PHP will not throw an error if this parameter is passed.

Return Values

Returns the first attribute in the entry on success and FALSE on error.

Changelog

Version Description
5.2.4 The ber_identifier was removed. This is now handled automatically by PHP.
