PHP RFC: Your Title Here

• Version: 0.1
• Date: 2017-07-13
• Author: Côme Chilliet, mcmic@php.net
• Status: Draft
• First Published at: http://wiki.php.net/rfc/ldap_controls

This RFC is an attempt at providing a complete and practical support for controls in php-ldap. People should be able to create controls, send them with a request, and get the controls from the results as well.

There is a patch for this from 2012: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61921

All the features and examples of the proposal.

ldap_control_paged_results and ldap_control_paged_result_response may get deprecated. Using ldap_get_option and ldap_set_option with LDAP_OPT_SERVER_CONTROLS or LDAP_OPT_CLIENT_CONTROLS may not work exactly the same.

PHP 7.3 or PHP 8

Describe any new constants so they can be accurately and comprehensively explained in the PHP documentation.

Make sure there are no open issues when the vote starts!

List existing areas/features of PHP that will not be changed by the RFC.

This helps avoid any ambiguity, shows that you have thought deeply about the RFC's impact, and helps reduces mail list noise.

Support for controls should be added directly in ldap_search and others.

Include these so readers know where you are heading and can discuss the proposed voting options.

State whether this project requires a 2/3 or 50%+1 majority (see voting)
