Re: [PEAR] [ANNOUNCEMENT] Net_LDAP2-2.0.7 (stable) Released.

[Alexey Borzov]

Hi,

I looked at Net_LDAP2 package thinking to replace Net_LDAP in one project and
noticed its quite liberal approach to coding standards: while the package lists
PHP5 in dependencies and there are "public" and "protected" modifiers in the
code, the class itself extends PEAR and error reporting is done with PEAR_Errors
instead of Exceptions.

http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.e_strict.php
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.errors.php

It also doesn't list ldap extension as its required dependency, but doesn't work
with said extension, either.

Code to trigger the problem (especially if ldap extension is missing or LDAP
isn't running on localhost:389):

<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);

require_once 'Net/LDAP2.php';

var_dump(Net_Ldap2::connect());

?>
