31 This extension of the class Net::LDAP::Filter provides entry matching
32 functionality on the Perl side.
33
34 Given an entry it will tell whether the entry matches the filter
35 object.
36
37 It can be used on its own or as part of a Net::LDAP::Server based LDAP
38 server.
39
41 match ( ENTRY [ ,SCHEMA ] )
42 Return whether ENTRY matches the filter object. If a schema object
43 is provided, the selection of matching algorithms will be derived
44 from schema.
45
46 In case of error undef is returned.
47
48 For approximate matching like (cn~=Schmidt) there are several modules
49 that can be used. By default the following modules will be tried in
50 this order:
51
52 String::Approx
53 Text::Metaphone
54 Text::Soundex
55
56 If none of these modules is found it will fall back on a simple regexp
57 algorithm.
58
59 If you want to specifically use one implementation only, simply do
60
61 use Net::LDAP::FilterMatch qw(Text::Soundex);
